1. Coastal Communities Museum

5.0 based on 34 reviews
The Coastal Communities Museum opened in 2013. Each year the museum features a new exhibition, which generally starts-off at Easter and runs throughout the calendar year until the end of November, although check out the opening days as this varies according to the month. The museum has much to offer both adults and children. Mums and dads may be interested in some local history or gaining knowledge, while kids maybe looking forward to a fun visit, with things to do. The museum is managed and run by a team of volunteers, who rely on donations from the visiting public along with other grants to help sustain its development. Once your tour of the exhibition is complete why not purchase a Trail Leaflet and see where it takes you!

A fantastic place to visit. We thoroughly enjoyed the visit, Concorde is spectacular but there are lots of other things to see with friendly knowledgeable staff and interesting videos to watch in the main areas. Our boys loved the assault course,we had lovely cakes and scones in the cafe and the whole place felt very clean and safe under COVID rules. Definitely a place to visit!

Unbelievable that I have lived in East Lothian for a lengthy period of time and never visited the museum. Some of the items on display brought back memories especially the Austin A50 the first car I ever owned, what an enjoyable walk through history.
