The island is serviced by a shop, post office, two village halls, church and heritage centre with café, there is also a medical practice on neighbouring Seil and 9-hole golf course. Luing offers a choice of outdoor pursuits including walking, sailing, kayaking and fishing and has its own skiff club. It is also a haven for a diverse range of wildlife. The popular coastal town of Oban offers an excellent range of retail outlets, professional services, a leisure centre and cinema. There is also a choice of primary and secondary schools. The town’s railway station runs daily services to Glasgow and from the harbour are regular ferry sailings to the Western Isles. Further to the north at Connel, a small airfield operates flights to the Outer Isles with plans to extend to Glasgow in future.
