There is a range of visitor moorings laid in the summer inside the islands, but if you want to have a quiet night away from the crowds then it is possible to find an anchorage space either to the east of the Eilean Islands or to the west of the pier. Unfortunately, like many of the Scottish anchorages, mooring buoys have taken over the best places. Millport Bay is littered with small islands and rocks that provide shelter in what is almost a perfect anchorage. This was the main reason for extending the pier, while tucked inside is the older harbour with its stone walls. The town possesses Britain’s smallest cathedral, the Cathedral of the Isles, which was completed in 1851 to a design by William Butterfield, one of the leading Gothic revival architects of the day. Then it was developed to export the high-quality stone from a local quarry and later it became a destination for the excursion steamers coming out of Glasgow on day trips. Millport is a quirky seaside destination with a wealth of things to do that are brilliant for families. In the past Millport was home to the revenue cutter that patrolled the approaches to the Clyde and it was also a considerable fishing port. Millport is a small harbour that has seen its share of ups and downs, and today the harbour and the bay are mainly a destination for yachts rather than commercial traffic. One of the best spots is in the bay off the town of Millport, which is located on the island of Great Cumbrae, just a short hop across from the Scottish mainland.
