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.
