Iona Ferry

The ferry runs frequently -- more than once an hour -- but at no particular time during the day. Fare is about 3pounds. Reasonable to stay in Fionnphort rather than on Iona.

Staffa

Boats to Staffa go from Iona at 9:45 and 1:45. You get 1 hour on Staffa.
Total travel time is under 3 hours. Boats don't go in bad weather.

The same boats stop at both Iona and Fionnphort, so you can pick up from the Mull side.
