Rothesay Marina
Rothesay Marina sits at the heart of the Isle of Bute's main harbour, run as a non-profit by Bute Berthing Company on behalf of Argyll & Bute Council, with 68 berths to its name. It's a proper working harbour town atmosphere — fishing boats and ferries share the waterfront alongside your berth, and the Victorian seaside town of Rothesay is right on your doorstep with its famous ornate toilets, castle ruins, and the grand Mount Stuart house a short trip away.
