Cobo Bay to Port Soif

Walking from Cobo Bay Hotel to Port Soif (Rovers AC) takes approximately 18 minutes (1.5km).

Turn right out of Cobo Bay hotel along the coast and follow the coastal road until you reach Port Soif (Rovers AC). There is an entrance into a small path along Port Soif road which enters into Port Soif (Rovers AC). For a slightly longer and more scenic walk try following the coastal path – you will need to cross the Port Soif road into the small path entrance.

To get to Portinfer shooting range, follow the same route but make sure you are on the coastal path either all the way or cross over to the coastal path at Port Soif.
