Feolin is a ferry dock on the Scottish Hebridean island of Jura . It is located on the west coast of Jura on Islay Sound opposite the port settlement Port Askaig on the neighboring island of Islay . The single-lane A846 , the only road on the Jura, ends in Feolin and continues from Port Askaig. A passenger and car ferry operates regularly between Port Askaig and Feolin. This is the only regular connection to Jura, so that a large part of the passenger and freight traffic to and from Jura is handled via Feolin. From Feolin there is a bus connection to the main town Craighouse .
