Ullapool Pier
The pier is the focal point of interest where the traditional fishing boats unload their catches of prawns, lobsters and scallops and where the ferry plies its trade to and from the Outer Isles.

Leisure Centre
The excellent Leisure centre in the village offers two excellent outdoor tennis courts, indoor short tennis, badminton, a climbing wall and a fully equipped fitness room as well as a sauna. The recently built full size indoor heated swimming pool is an added attraction on wet days and for the younger members of the family.

Golf Course
Ullapool has its own 9 hole golf course on the shores of Loch Broom, a challenging course full of character. Gairloch, Durness, Strathpeffer & Royal Dornoch courses are also within easy reach for a days outing for the keen golfer.

Beaches
The golden sands of Achnahaird, Gruinard and Achmelvich offer a wonderful day out.

Boat Trips
Just three miles north of the village is Ardmair where it is possible to hire canoes and small boats for sea fishing. From Ullapool, local boats take trips out to the Summer Isles where you can see seals, porpoises and a variety of sea birds.

Gardens
Enjoy a walk around our local Leckmelm Gardens and if that whets your appetite, then the scenic coastal route via Dundonnell to the famous Inverewe Gardens is a must. The other unique garden in the area is the Hydroponicum at Achiltibuie where tropical fruit and plants are grown using an organic water based system.
