Badcall comprises two hamlets in the Northwest Highlands of Scotland, Lower Badcall and Upper Badcall. They lie near to the coastline, next to the Outer Hebrides islands. Badcall is located 2 miles (3 km) south of Scourie, which is on the west side of Badcall Bay, and Lower Badcall to the east. There are the remains of a former fish station and fish farming is an important local industry. The villages also benefit a little from tourism.
