Had a glorious day visit today Tuesday 7th July 2009. It was my first visit in 10 years and my second visit in 25 years. It was my sister’s first visit in 25 years and my father’s first in about 50 years!!! We spent all our summers in the late 1950s and throughout the 1960s in Millport and this was a nostalgic trip back in time. We were so impressed with the standard of the beaches, the floral areas, the grassed verges, the workmen sweeping and cleaning and of course all our old favourites – West Bay, Fintry Bay, Mapes, Ritz, Crazy Golf and Crocodile Rock. But just where was Walter Kerr????? I’m coming back and it will be less than 10 years and I might even bring my bike! Keep up the good work.
I stayed in the cathedral about 45 yrs ago when Iwas in the brownies I have very fond memories, I remember signing a guess book then, i wonder if it still exists

Is there a public bus service that circumnavigates the island (hop-on, hop-off)?
