Know this place

Dunoon faces the Clyde and catches coastal air, but the Cowal peninsula behind it is thick with forestry, damp glens and sheltered lochans. The town waterfront is fine; the wooded areas toward the Ardgartan and Loch Eck side are where midges gather.

The ferry crossing from Gourock is usually the breeziest part of the trip.
