Location
Opened in 1801, the Crinan canal stretches nine miles, from Ardrishaig on Loch Fyne to Crinan on the Sound of Jura, and provides a shortcut from the Firth of Clyde to the Western Isles.
Moorings are offered on the canal and the established boating centres of Crinan, Tayvallich, Ardfern and Craobh Haven are all within easy reach. Cairnbaan is not only notable for its breathtaking scenery but also for the Cairnbaan Hotel and Crinan Hotel which take full advantage of the wonderful setting.
Lochgilphead is the main centre of mid-Argyll and offers a variety of amenities and shops including a sports centre, hospital, library and the main primary and secondary schools. The headquarters of Argyll and Bute Council are also in Lochgilphead. The surrounding area offers some of Scotland’s prettiest walks, prehistoric sites in Kilmartin Glen, excellent fishing and, of course, testing sailing waters.
