The village of Tarbert has a lot to offer, the harbour itself is a picturesque attraction – you can admire the yachts on the marina pontoons as well as the Tarbert fishing fleet, which remains active today. The fishing heritage is of utmost importance to the personality and character of the village, while the larder of Loch Fyne and beyond keeps the restaurants well stocked with the freshest of seafood.

You’ll also find heaps of scrumptious seafood on Kintyre and Gigha. Some of Scotland’s best seafood is caught locally and there’s a huge choice of eateries across Kintyre specialising in nature’s bountiful marine harvest.
The Kintyre Way is one of Scotland’s top long distance routes. Here are six reasons why the Kintyre Way is the best 100 miles you’ll ever travel!
The main way to travel to and from Kintyre is by car or by bus via the A82 and then the A83 with a short ferry trip to Gigha from Tayinloan on the Kintyre peninsula.
Or if you are travelling from Southern Scotland, why not sail from Ayrshire to Campbeltown using the CalMac ferry link? This connects with the Glasgow train service.
Or cross by ferry via Arran or Cowal to Kintyre – allowing you to explore much more of the west coast.
