View source for Isle of Skye

{{stub}}

'''The Isle of Skye''' is located just off the West Coast of [[Scotland]]. It is reachable by land, and therefore hitchable by land, via Kyle of Lochalsh, and has various CalMac ferry connections (e.g reaching [[The Outer Hebrides]] via Skye is much cheaper than via [[Oban]]).

Skye is rather touristy during the summer, so it's worth putting Skye on your sign when you're approximately in the right direction (rather than a particular place on Skye) for tourists to pick you up.

Hitching on the island itself is incredibly easy, thanks in no part due to the sparsity of bus services. Consistent success hitching north from:
- The area on the right after entering Skye via the bridge, just after the small roundabout.
- The roadside going towards Uig, opposite the biggest Co-Op in Portree.
 - All smaller roads, though sometimes you have to wait a while before anyone drives past, especially in winter when there are less tourists.
