Cruises from Scotland

Sailing from the beautiful landscapes of Scotland is a great way to kick-start your cruise and there are plenty of options available to ensure you pick the best cruise for you. Cruising directly from a Scottish port can make starting your cruise holiday much quicker and easier than flying elsewhere to start your cruise from a port in the South of England or further.

What cruise ports are in Scotland?

There are 16 ports across Scotland, though the most popular cruise ports to depart from include Rosyth, Dundee, and Greenock. Other ports you might visit include Tobermary, Portree, Invergordon, or Lerwick.

Popular months typically fall across summer from May to August. Sailings vary between 5-nights to 14-nights, so you can opt for a mini cruise from Scotland or a longer getaway.

Where can you sail?
