The *Moonlight* was a 19th-century steamship wrecked in Ardlamont Bay, Cowal, on the Firth of Clyde. It was lost in 1884 after striking rocks during a storm, resulting in the deaths of two crew members; the vessel was carrying general cargo, which was likely lost. The wreck is significant as a well-preserved example of 19th-century steamship technology in Scottish waters.
