Marine Tourism

Marine Tourism

The Marine Tourism Programme is a place-based tourism programme with 2 component projects at the Isles of Cumbrae and Arran in North Ayrshire. The programme will construct step-ashore marine infrastructure. The Cumbrae Project will create a transit marina at Millport and the Arran Project will create pontoons at key sites as a first phase of a longer term ambition to develop a marina at Arran. Marine infrastructure supports tourism, businesses and communities, and improves marine access and transport. This generates new jobs, skills and training opportunities. Marine environmental stewardship, and active marine leisure and sports build strong and sustainable wellbeing economies. The programme will stimulate and lever further investment into Ayrshire’s marine tourism and the blue economy sectors.

This project will receive funding of £9.5 million from the Scottish Government.
