North Kessock Community Pier

North Kessock Community Pier is the only public facility suitable for small to medium boat launching in the inner Moray Firth. We recently upgraded the structure by adding a Small Boat Jetty, to greatly enhance safe access for all users, especially those with reduced mobility. This also provides an excellent viewpoint for dolphin watching and taking photographs of the firth, especially spectacular sunsets!

Luss Pier

Reviewed By marianb813 - Bratislava, Slovakia

its a small village, located on the shores of lake. From first sight it seems as a touristic place, where you can create best ever pictures about paradise. Sure it depends on weather, but we were lucky. Shops, restaurants, bars, pier, walks, beautiful panoramas and friendly people that all makes this place unique. Houses made from stones and rocks. There are parkings in the village for tourists so no worries, where to park a car.

This was a great place to eat our deep-fried Mars Bars. There are loads of benches around the area with great views, and there are also some public toilets.

The Harbours of Limekilns

Reviewed By Mobile35942195053 - Bristol, United Kingdom

After visiting beautiful Aberdour and heading for Culross, we just had to stop at Limekilns and take in the views from this beautiful harbour. Free parking, large grassy areas, sculptures, tributes and information boards. Fabulous views back towards Edinburgh and those bridges.

Cellardyke Harbour

Reviewed By macedonboy - Glasgow, United Kingdom

A picturesque village and harbour stop while we were doing the Fife Coastal Trail. The sheltered harbour is worth seeing especially as its not as busy as the harbours in Anstruther and Crail ,and you get to see the harbour in its entirety. The shoreline is also quite rocky, but walkable which provides another distraction on the trail.

7. Aberdour Harbour

Aberdour Harbour

Reviewed By johnhouston2 - Knaresborough, United Kingdom

Whenever we are in this part of Fife we are drawn to lovely village of Aberdour simply to take a walk down to the harbour and beach. No matter how many photos I’ve taken here, there is something incredibly atmospheric about the image of the old wooden pier jutting into the Firth, with the houses and headland behind it. A great place to visit.

The Esplanade

Reviewed By JimO1077

The esplanade is beautiful and a great place if you want a long walk mostly flat and great for a power walk and it is right on the river Clyde so some great views in summer and in winter if clear it is also very close to Greenock town centre that within walking distance I have walked myself many a time when I was a lot younger and it was great
