Port Bannatyne is a small coastal village on the north shore of the Isle of Bute in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, set on a sheltered stretch of the Firth of Clyde. It sits a short distance from the island’s main town of Rothesay and commands good views across to the Cowal peninsula and the mainland, making it a quiet base for sailing and coastal walks.
Established as a Victorian seaside development with historic steamer links to Glasgow, Port Bannatyne still centres on its harbour and marina and has a strong marine and tourism character. The local economy leans on boating, holiday accommodation and small-scale shops and cafés, and the village attracts a mix of residents - from retirees to seasonal visitors - who enjoy the relaxed seaside atmosphere and easy access to island amenities.
