The marina is fast gaining a reputation among the sailing communities as a must-go to destination and many drive from Glasgow to the marina for culinary days and evenings out.

Tarbert is 12.5 miles to the west and there is a ferry service from Portavadie direct to Tarbert.

The area offers much in the way of outdoor pursuits including cycle routes, challenging hill climbs, walks and several golf courses.
