Bay-view parking, evening noise
Unnamed Road, Portree
Been here?
This is a gravel roadside parking area with space for about 4 campers and a beautiful view across the bay. It is generally quiet at night, with little traffic after 20h, although the site can be popular, windy and slightly sloping. Midges may be present in the evening, and pedestrians have occasionally been noisy late at night. Toilets and showers are available at the piers for a small fee, about 500m away.

Beautiful view but a bit exposed if windy. Quiet (in terms of noise) but popular spot. Showers and toilets for a small fee at the piers (just 500m).
Magnificent gravel spot, with a very beautiful view and quiet nights.
Superb, peaceful spot for spending the night.
Nice spot with amazing sunset views. Some midges in the evening but absolutely manageable. A bit quieter than the larger parking down the road.
Very quiet road, with no traffic after 8 p.m. Slight slope but a wonderful view. Exposed to the wind, but perfectly acceptable. A group of six young people made an unauthorized fire nearby, ate, and left early because of the rain.
This is not a passing place; the passing place is opposite. However, we decided to drive around the corner and spent the night there because the view was more beautiful.
Very peaceful place for the night once the traffic dies down in the evening. Somewhat sloping, but with a great view. You should arrive promptly, as this spot and the large parking area farther along in the harbor are very popular.
Arrived at lunchtime looking for an early overnight stay. Not a chance! It was absolutely packed with camper vans and motorhomes. Beautiful spot, pity it is so busy. We moved on to find somewhere quieter.
Magnificent view, very close to the beach. There were three vans and one motorhome there that night. However, quite a few pedestrians passed by speaking very loudly until late at night.
Dear campers, please consider the space you really need and don't use it as a campsite. park straight and leave your tables and chairs in the car. There are a lot of people who want to enjoy this stunning place!
Very beautiful view over the bay. Easy access; follow the signs for the beach. Small dead-end road, peaceful.
Beautiful view. Access is okay.
Amazing mountain and sea views. Very quiet at night. Highly recommended.
We slept here and it was extremely quiet. However, the next morning we saw that parking is not allowed here because it is one of many passing places. Therefore, not recommended.
Very beautiful view, little traffic, and room for two or three vehicles. Very slight slope, but suitable for rooftop tents.
