Rothesay (Port Code:GBROT) is a ferry port on a primary route and is the principal harbour on the Island of Bute. The port has both commercial and fishing interests. Rothesay is located at the head of Rothesay Bay, on the E coast of the Island of Bute. Rothesay on the Isle of Bute is a 30 minute ferry ride from the mainland at Wemyss Bay. Rothesay is famous for its pier and promenade which have been built on reclaimed land. The original shoreline lies about 200m further inland, just in front of Rothesay Castle.
In the past the inner harbour was used for discharging coal and other bulk cargoes together with fish from local fishing boats and boats from other ports. International traffic signals are shown, three vertical red lights mean that the harbour is closed to all movements, and three vertical green lights mean that the harbour is open. There are berths available within the harbour either in the outer basin, or underneath a lifting bridge and into the dredged inner basin. The lifting bridge stays closed whenever a ferry is in.
