A small river in the SE of Islay in the Inner Hebrides, the Kilbride River rises on the southwestern slopes of Beinn Bhreac, 2 miles (3 km) northeast of Port Ellen. It flows south, southeast and finally east, entering the sea at the western end of Lagavulin Bay. The small Kilbride Reservoir has been built on its course, a half-mile (0.8 km) north of Laphroaig, with a diversion a quarter-mile (0.4 km) further downstream taking water to the Laphroaig Distillery.
