Kilcreggan Pier

Highlight • Viewpoint

If you want to use the KilcregganGourock ferry check if it's running. It depends on the weather and I think wind in particular.

Loch Thom

Lovely views across Loch Thom, and perfect for a little paddle if it’s warm enough! Great place for a picnic.

Inverkip Obelisk Monument

Highlight • Monument

Great off road cycle route on paths avoiding the busy coastal road which is very busy.

Lunderston Bay

Highlight • Rest Area

Glasgow's closest sandy beach!

It surprised me but there was a wee bike repair station there as well as working public toilets.

Cloch Lighthouse

Highlight • Structure

The Cloch Lighthouse, created in 1797 by Thomas Smith and Robert Stevenson, features a round tower with triangular windows and added foghorns. Back then, the light's lenses floated in mercury and were turned by hand. Today, it's automated.
