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. |  |
