Coastal village in the Firth of Clyde. The Bay is a popular holiday destination, as well as a working ferry port, connecting to Rothesay on Bute.

The author, John M. Leighton said about the area, "The coast at this place, as it is with a few exceptions along the whole course of the Frith, is bounded at a short distance back from the shore with a range of hills, sometimes rising in gentle slopes, and at other times in abrupt rocky precipices, from which is to be had a continued succession of beautiful and varied views."
