Heribusta (Scottish Gaelic: Hearabusta), (also Herbusta), is a small crofting township on the Trotternish peninsula of the Isle of Skye in the Highlands of Scotland. It is part of the civil parish of Kilmuir.
Heribusta lies along a small road that branches off eastward from the A855 at Kilmuir Hall and rejoins the A855 1 mile further north near the Skye Museum of Island Life. Along this road one also finds the Kilmuir cemetery with the grave of Flora Macdonald and the headstone of fashion designer Lee Alexander McQueen. Heribusta is 5.8 kilometres (4 miles) north of Uig.
