Test centre address: Castlebay Ferry Terminal, The Pier, Castlebay, Isle of Barra HS9 5XD
Barra's driving tests start from the ferry terminal on the pier at Castlebay. It's one of the smallest centres in the country, so small that no figures are published for it. Tests are only held occasionally, a few days a year at most, and none at all were recorded in the latest year's figures. Learners come from Castlebay, Vatersay, Borve, Northbay and Eoligarry, and from Eriskay by the ferry.
The nearest other centre is Benbecula, reached by the ferry from Ardmhor to Eriskay and the causeways north.
With so few tests held here, being told the moment a date comes free is what counts.

Where is the Barra driving test centre?
The ferry terminal on the pier at Castlebay, HS9 5XD, at the south end of the island. Don't head for Ardmhor, the other ferry terminal at the north east end. There are only four car parking spaces at the terminal, so allow time.

Only occasionally, a few days a year at most, when an examiner comes over, and none were recorded in the latest year's figures. That's why being alerted the moment a date appears matters, and we do that by SMS and WhatsApp.
