Our Favourites
Portobello3 miles to the southeast of Leith lies Portobello, Edinburgh's town beach. Once a lively seaside resort, it still retains a faded charm - and on a hot summer's day, the beach can be a mass of swimmers, sunbathers, surfers and pleasure boats.
A walk along the promenade is pleasurable at any time of year. |  |
Longniddry BentsA long sandy beach stretching for 4. 5km, with rock pools to explore and fine views to Edinburgh and the Forth Bridges. Longniddry Bents attracts the largest number of visitors of any countryside site in East Lothian. |  |
Gullane BentsPopular with surfers, the beautiful long beach is a great setting for a peaceful stroll. Edged by dunes, it offers superb views west to Edinburgh and you can enjoy spectacular sunsets. The village of Gullane is also worth exploring and boasts an impressive range of pubs, shops and restaurants, making it a great place for a day out. |  |
YellowcraigNamed best UK beach for urbanites in search of the sea by Condé Nast Traveller (2007), this long sandy beach lies just west of North Berwick and is popular with families and dog walkers. Stroll along the sandy cove with great views over the Firth of Forth to Fife and the lighthouse on Fidra Island, or walk the footpaths of the nature trail through the adjacent sheltered woodlands and grassland. |  |
Aberlady BayIt is one of the area's most interesting beaches. As well as being great for bird and wildlife watching (you can often glimpse deer at dawn and dusk), the beach has some hidden surprises. Half buried in the sand are two midget submarines, which were deliberately sunk here at the end of World War II. |  |
Aberdour-Silver SandsBeach Type: Sand. One of the most popular and attractive resorts on the Fife coast, this sheltered beach offers the freshness and variety of the seaside with the peace and tranquillity of the countryside. The charming shoreline looks out to the islands of Inchmickery and Inchcolm, where there is a famous Abby, and is connected to the Fife Coastal Path, which is well worth walking. |  |
CramondA small beach, close to Edinburgh and easily reached by car or bus, Cramond is a popular choice with Edinburgh residents who head here to walk and cycle on the beachside paths. At low tide you can cross the causeway to Cramond Island and explore, but be careful as the changing tides come in fast and there have been cases of people getting stranded on the island overnight!. |  |
Seton Sands Holiday VillageOnly 30 minutes by road from Edinburgh, Seton Sands offers a variety of indoor and outdoor activities including an indoor heated pool, and daytime sports. The caravan park is within easy reach of several beaches and Musselburgh Golf Course. . |  |
North Berwick SandsA string of lovely beaches in this seaside town offer stunning views to the small islands off the coast and the impressive Bass Rock, the world's largest single island gannet colony. Take a stroll along the front in the town of North Berwick, to admire the boats in the harbour and the picturesque scenery. . |  |
