Friends,
Making the jump from Norway to the northwest coast of Scotland via Shetland in late July, what ports in Scotland would you recommend for food provisioning?

Lerwick, Kirkwall, Ullapool, Lochinver, Mallaig and Oban. Inverness if you go through the Caledonian Canal.

Hi Charles,
Simon gives you a good list.
You will be going through some great cruising grounds: Fair Isle, the Shetlands and the Orkneys stand out, so suggest leaving lots of time to cruise if you can. Going slow enough, you will find many places to provision along the way.
