In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Ardavasar like this:
Ardavasar or Ardvarsar, a hamlet in the SE of the Isle of Skye, on a small bay of its own name on the Sound of Sleat, about 6 miles ENE of the Point of Sleat and 17 S of Broadford. It has a post office under Broadford. A small headland flanks its bay, and is the ordinary landing-place from Arasaig.
Ardavasar is now part of HIGHLAND Council. Click here for graphs and data of how HIGHLAND has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Ardavasar itself, go to Statistics.
