Millport is the only town on the Isle of Cumbrae in the Firth of Clyde off the coast of North Ayrshire, Scotland. The town is 4 miles south from the Largs-based Caledonian MacBrayne ferry slipway.

Due to its small size, the island and its town are inextricably linked in the minds of visitors and residents. For a fuller description of Millport, please see: Isle of Cumbrae.

The town has the smallest extant cathedral in the British Isles: the Cathedral of the Isles of the Scottish Episcopal Church.

The island is very popular for cyclists because of it's small size and flat surface.
