The A846 road is one of the two principal roads of Islay in the Inner Hebrides off the west coast of mainland Scotland and the only 'A' road on the neighbouring island of Jura.

A ferry connect the two islands across the Sound of Islay.

It connects Lussagiven on Jura with Ardbeg on Islay which is a distance of some 46½ miles by road – considerably less by boat.
