Eilean Loch Oscair lies off the north west coast of the Island of Lismore within the Firth of Lorne.

The Island lies in one of the least explored areas of the west coast. Access can be taken from the public slipway at Port Appin or from a private jetty at Port Ramsay on the Island of Lismore for which the owner will have an informal agreement to use.

As a croft the Island has the ability to support not only livestock, but also produce food. Services and provisions require to be brought from either Lismore or the mainland. Lismore is one of the most historic Islands in Scotland, being one of the first major Celtic Christian areas, established in Scotland with close association with Saint Moluag a compatriot of Saint Columba and who staff is still held on the island by the Baron of Bachuil. In the 19th century, the Island population exceeded 1,000, however the population is now around 200, but thriving. The Island supports a village store with post office, as well as a passenger ferry and a vehicular ferry, a heritage centre and village hall that hosts many community activities.

Port Appin has renowned hotels and restaurants and a well-stocked community village store as well as a craft shop, motor garage and an active community. There are a number of moorings which are operated by a local Moorings Association and there may be the opportunity to secure a mooring.
