Ardnave Point or Ardnave Peninsula is a peninsula of northwest Islay. Off its western shore is Nave Island. Beyond its eastern shore is Loch Gruinart. At its base is Ardnave and Ardnave Loch. The point is mainly dunes and moorland, some of it covered with replanted grass, with no eminent elevations. A knoll at the tip is called Cnoc na Faire, "lookout hill." A beach north of Ardnave is Tràigh Nostaig. Further north is Tràigh nam Fuaran. Around the coast of the point west to east are a sequence of named inlets: Port nam Muileach, Port Cnoc na Faire, Port Domhain, Port nam Beindag, Port nam Marbh, and after a small point, Sgeir na Nighinn, is Port na Feamainn, in the very mouth of Loch Gruinart. From most of Ardnave Point it is possible to survey most of the coast of north Islay. Beyond the visible hills is the Sound of Islay, with the Paps of Jura protruding above the hills.
