Calbha Mòr is a tidal islet in Eddrachillis Bay, Sutherland, Scotland.

Geography

Calbha Mòr lies north of the Kylesku Bridge and west of the Duartmore Forest, in a location that is relatively inaccessible from the A894 road. It covers 70 hectares (170 acres) and comprises two rounded hills, the higher of which reaches 67 metres (220 ft).

It is separated from its smaller neighbour, Calbha Beag, by a channel 11 metres (36 ft) deep. Calbha Beag is 45 hectares (110 acres) in area.

The sheltered Bàgh Chalbha lies to the east and a major fish escape from a fish farm took place here in 2003.
