Wemyss Bay

Wemyss Bay is a village on the East Coast of the Firth of Clyde in the district of Inverclyde, Scotland. It is the port for ferries to Rothesay on the Isle of Bute. Passengers from the island can connect to Glasgow by train, which terminate in the village at a truly magnificent station, with a notable clock tower. It was designed by James Millar in 1903 for the Caledonian Railway and the interior is an unforgettable essay in glass, steel and curves. It is Scotland's finest railway building.

The port is very exposed, so in high winds the ferries must travel up river to Gourock to dock.
