It is the nearest town to the HMNB Clyde naval base. Garelochhead lies 7 miles northwest of Helensburgh. Loch Lomond is a few miles to the east, and Loch Long to the west. To some the scenery of the loch is only slightly marred by the presence of the HMNB Clyde submarine base and the associated 'peace camp'. In addition to the few local shops, pub and church, it has a bowling club and two community buildings – the Gibson Hall and Centre 81, which is home to Route 81 youth project, gym, café, computer suite and meeting rooms. There is also a gallery featuring work by Scottish artists.
