Brodick

Brodick (/ˈbrɒdɪk/ BROD-ik,[4] Scottish Gaelic: Tràigh a' Chaisteil ("Castle Beach") or Breadhaig) is the main village on the Isle of Arran,[5] in the Firth of Clyde, Scotland.

The crossing, which takes less than an hour, is one of the busiest on the CalMac network, and dolphins and basking sharks are occasionally spotted en route.

The village has seen investment recently, with £30 million being spent on a new pier and passenger terminal capable of handling two vessels at once, increasing capacity.

There are many family-owned and independent businesses, such as hotels, restaurants, shops, bed and breakfast establishments, guest houses and outdoor activities.

Brodick has a range of amenities, including a primary school, a village hall, a library, a church, a sports park, a health centre, and a beach.

The high school, council offices, Highlands and Islands University Resource Centre and hospital can all be found in Lamlash, located 3 miles (5 kilometres) to the south.
