The capital of Colonsay is the village of Scalasaig where the ferry terminal links to the mainland and the other isles. There are also small villages at upper and lower Kilchattan and farms and crofts scattered over the island Colonsay although sparsely populated is still a popular tourist resort complete with facilities and amenities, there is a hotel, a shop, a post office and a tea shop in Scalasaig.
