Loch Ewe cruise port guide
Loch Ewe is the only north facing Loch in Scotland, with an interesting history and a fine scenic landscape this area has a true natural beauty. During WW2 the loch was a convoy collecting point with a strong naval presence; it was therefore protected by light and heavy aircraft guns, a boom net and mine defence system helped to shield this precious settlement
About Loch Ewe
Lochranza is a small village of around 200 people on the northernmost tip of the Isle of Arran in the Firth of Clyde, Scotland. A pier constructed in 2003 allows larger cruise vessels to dock and disembark passengers for a short tour of the village. The paddle steamer Waverley and the small cruise ship Lord of the Glens are among the regular vessels calling here.
Lochranza Castle, a 16th-century L-plan ruin, anchors the village and doubles as prime red deer territory. The Arran Distillery (est. 1995) is a natural stop for whisky enthusiasts, and the Lochranza Hotel bar complements it with over 350 Scotch expressions available by the dram. Geology-minded passengers can visit the field study centre and walk to Hutton's Unconformity at Newton Point, where James Hutton made a foundational discovery in 1787. The northern shore offers year-round grey seal sightings, while the broader landscape rewards those looking for otters and golden eagles. An eleven-hole golf course is also available in the village.
