Scalasaig port in the evening.

Scalasaig (Scottish Gaelic: Sgalasaig) lies on the east coast of Colonsay in the Hebrides of Scotland. It is the main settlement on the island and home to its only port; thus tourists, who come by ferry, must pass through it on the way to any part of the isle. It contains the island's shop and post office (in the same building), parish church, microbrewery, doctor's surgery, village hall, cafe and hotel/bar.
