Portuairk

Portuaik (Scottish Gaelic: Port Uairce) is a tiny village in Ardnamurchan, Lochaber, in the Highland council area of Scotland, and claims the honour of being the most westerly settlement on the Scottish mainland.

Overlooking Sanna Bay, the village is visited by walkers and scenery enthusiasts, with views of Skye and the Small Isles: Rùm, Eigg, and Muck.

Tigh Na Mara is a small cottage at the end of the bay.
