Colintraive () is a village in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. Once the site where cattle were swum across the narrows to the Isle of Bute, the MV Loch Dunvegan — a ferry operated by Caledonian MacBrayne — now provides a link to the island.
==Geography and amenities== Colintraive is located on the west coast of the Cowal peninsula. Its area includes Ardtaraig and Loch Striven to the northwest, the head and the shores of Loch Riddon in the northeast, while the village itself faces the Kyles of Bute. The Colintraive area extends further south to Couston and around this hill back into Loch Striven again.
