A beautiful clean wide stretch of coastline, wonderful at low tide. Loved by families, dog walkers, couples or even those just looking for a bit of solitude - big enough to accommodate all. Enjoy, breathe deep

Bass Rock

Reviewed By V9314JIrichardc

Hope this is the correct boat. Booked Braveheart with Dougie to take us to the Bass Rock. Superb experience. Dougie took us within 6 ft of the rock. As well as being a superb skipper, he is immensely knowledgeable about the history of the rock and it's variety of bird life. A great trip.

Tyninghame Beach

Reviewed By keithw533 - Falkirk, United Kingdom

Great place for a decent walk through woods and then the beach. Less busy than the more well known beaches, so good if you like some peace and quiet. Good cafe in the village after bracing walk.

John Muir Alpacas

John Muir Alpacas is an exciting new trekking and tourism business close to John Muir Country Park and the John Muir Way in Dunbar.

Reviewed By laurenhU4590WA

Highly recommend a John Muir Alpaca Trek, such a wonderful experience, in a beautiful location. We had the most amazing morning with, Bertie, Ouzo, Toby and Harry and the wonderful owner Jen, who greeted us with a warm welcome, and made everyone feel right at home. We went on a lovely walk through the woods, which leads you out onto the most stunning beach on the estuary of John Muir. The Alpacas are just amazing, gentle, funny, inquisitive and they love a wee selfie! My Dad got paired with Ouzo, it was the perfect pairing! He’s just like my Dad, laid back and a proper gent! Jen paired everyone perfectly, as no one was in a hurry to hand them back after the trek! Thank you John Muir Alpacas, we look forward to coming back to visit soon.

Victoria Harbour

Reviewed By as0915

The harbour is quite small, nevertheless, the scenery is absolutely stunning! The fish and chips were very tasty too. Definitely worth a visit.
