Tighnabruaich is a village on the Cowal peninsula, on the western arm of the Kyles of Bute in Argyll and also Bute, Scotland. In 2011 the population was 660. It is west of Glasgow and north of the Isle of Arran. The roadway to Ormidale was integrated in the late 1960s, as well as up until then the village was extra dependent on the sea for the transport of passengers as well as products. A pier was perhaps integrated in the 1830s by the Castle Steamship Company, a forerunner of MacBrayne. It was a quiting area for paddle cleaners and also Clyde flatterers. The wood pier was rebuilt in 1885 by the Tighnabruaich Estate who had it from 1840 until 1950. George Olding owned it until 1965 when it came to be the responsibility of the local council. Passenger services on and around the Clyde were established after the PS Comet was introduced into service in 1812 as well as tourism established with the introduction of cruise ships via the Kyles around Bute, to Arran and also along Loch Fyne. The pier is used by the paddle steamer Waverley. Its Royal National Lifeboat Institution inshore lifeboat station presently has an Atlantic 85 type lifeboat and also tractor on station. Tighnabruaich is popular for sailing and also yachting and also has a sailing school. Shinty is the significant sporting activity in the village which is house to Kyles Athletic that have won much more Camanachd Cups than any other group aside from Newtonmore and also Kingussie.
