Everything about The Kyles Of Bute totally explained
The
Kyles of Bute (
Scottish Gaelic:
Na Caoil Bhòdach) are a narrow sea channel which separates the northern end of the
Isle of Bute from the
Cowal peninsula, part of the
Scottish mainland.
The narrowest strait is only some 300m across and is spanned by the
Calmac ferry from
Rhubodach to
Colintraive.
The Kyles are split into the east and west kyles. The east kyle (An Caol an Ear) runs from
Rothesay Bay north west up to the entrance to
Loch Riddon. Here at the northern end of the east kyle are the
Burnt Islands and the island of
Eilean Dubh. The west kyle (An Caol an Iar/An Caol Ceathrach) runs from here south west, past the village of
Tighnabruaich out to the Sound of Bute.
The Kyles are designated as a
National Scenic Area. The Kyles are reflected in the name of Tighnabruaich based
shinty team
Kyles Athletic.
