Dunstaffnage Marina
Dunstaffnage Marina sits on the shores of Dunstaffnage Bay at the mouth of Loch Etive, just three miles north of Oban — meaning you've got Scotland's so-called "Seafood Capital" practically on your doorstep. The views across to the 13th-century Dunstaffnage Castle make this one of the more atmospheric spots to drop anchor in Argyll. It's well-placed as a base for exploring the Firth of Lorn and the wider Inner Hebrides, with the A85 keeping you connected inland too.
