Cloch or Cloch Point is a point on the coast of the Firth of Clyde, Scotland. The name comes from the Gaelic for stone.
Cloch Point lies north of Inverkip and south of Gourock on the A770 road.
In 1797 Thomas Smith built a lighthouse here, probably to warn boats away from The Gantocks a dangerous reef of drying rocks or skerry directly west of the point.
