Tobermory, capital of the Isle of Mull

Tobermory, founded in 1788 is the capital of Mull, it is located on a sheltered bay in the north east of the island. The town’s name means Mary’s Well which is derived from its Gaelic name Tobar Mhoire where “Tobar” means well and “Mhoire” Mary.

It is a popular tourist destination with brightly coloured rows of houses and shops lining the graceful curve of Tobermory Bay, just perfect for a summer evening stroll.

I hope these few Tobermory images give a flavour of this area of the Isle of Mull.
