There are two ways to approach Ardnish point, However one of them has little or no parking, but can be a good (if not lengthy) escape route should the incoming tide sneak up on you, making your original path too deep to cross. Tides are slow moving, so you can keep an eye on it easily.
Approach Broadford from the Skye Bridge on the A850.
Turn right at the signpost for Ashaig immediately after the small narrow stone road bridge.
Cross the cattlegrid and head on down the single track road for approx 200 m.
As the track rounds a bend, take the small dirt track on the right and head for the graveyard. You can park at the style, however unless using high wheel base vehicle, I advise parking at graveyard and walking towards the style.
Make your way straight across and to the left of the tiny island ahead, heading for the s-bend in the river. Cross here or slightly upstream. Back at the s-bend there is a gap in the rocks. Before the gap,
Continue over to the next two peninsula's. Don't head south to the end. Follow them back inshore, and it is the side facing the mainland or the east side of the bedrock peninsulas where most fossils can be seen right along it's length.
If you are caught napping and the tide is too far in, head back towards the gap and follow the river back upstream until you can safely cross over again.
