My partner and I visited as a pre-christmas date night, having been aware for a few months due to the virus (much like many others). We were wary of how safe it would be, but I can honestly say I never felt at risk. Distancing was mandatory, staff wore masks and were behind screens mostly. Booking online was quick and painless. I had a lovely night out, thank you!

Can't believe this was the first time I've been here in all the years of coming through Greenock or visiting Greenock. The view from this vantage point is Incredible. We had the best day weather wise but it would be amazing in any weather.

Part of Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park, Greenock Cut Visitor Centre, Loch Thom, not far from Inverkip in Inverclyde, provides wonderful walks, scenic views and picnic sites. There is good access to the Greenock Cut (a 5.5 mile aqueduct, and designated ancient monument) for a great reasonably level circular-walking route with panoramic views of the Clyde. A shorter family friendly walk is the (1 hour) picturesque Nature Trail in Shielhill Glen where the trail goes alongside and criss-crosses the Kip burn. Download the Trail guide to find all the hidden wood spirits. Plus there's the Kelly Cut (2.5 hour) walk which allows views over Wemyss Bay and the more southern Clyde. The Centre is open weekends in summer Apr - Oct and closed in winter although toilets are open daily. Call in and warm up with a coffee and pick up some light refreshments. There's an interactive exhibition on the Greenock Cut and environmental activities such as touch table, word searches, animals and colouring in.

The walk is circular and mostly flat, paths are fine for walking, spectacular views as you make your way round. Lots of places to sit and rest if needed. If you follow the path you cant really get lost but i would have liked to have seen markers marking the miles, we were first timers and unsure how long the walk was, it felt like we were never coming to the end, we walked this on a very hot day. Its a lovely walk with a cafe at the end. Plenty of parking too.

The esplanade is beautiful and a great place if you want a long walk mostly flat and great for a power walk and it is right on the river Clyde so some great views in summer and in winter if clear it is also very close to Greenock town centre that within walking distance I have walked myself many a time when I was a lot younger and it was great

A fantastic opportunity to see Aberdeen Dolphins up close! Experience our dolphin education centre complete with audio visual presentation and information room followed by a 1 hour cruise out to see the dolphins! Alternatively, why not try our Harbour Cruise. This 45 minute cruise, is a great way to see Aberdeen from a different angle with fantastic close up views of the many oil industry vessels in port.
