Ardminish Bay
Drop anchor in Ardminish Bay and you've got the best of Gigha right on your doorstep — the island's only village is a short walk away, along with the famous Achamore Gardens and a well-regarded restaurant. It's a relaxed, sheltered spot with a genuinely unhurried feel, and with mooring buoys available alongside the anchorage, you've got options for how you sit out the night.
