Tarbert on Loch Fyne is an attractive village which for many visitors acts as the gateway to the beautiful peninsula of Kintyre.
Tabert’s attractive natural harbour is best appreciated from Robert the Bruce's 14th century castle above the town.
The village is still home to a working fishing fleet and is an increasingly popular destination for the yachting fraternity, particularly so in May during the heats for the Scottish Series.
The annual seafood festival in July also draws the crowds and is well worth a visit.

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.
