In June this is still a cold, rainy place. Lots of warnings against swimming. Good for sea air and a walk on the beach. Multiple restaurants/ fast food across the road, and an amusement park including Ferris wheel.

Love coming here! Amazing beach front walk. Perfect for cycling, jogging and dog walking. Walk from the river don to the river Dee. So many amazing food trucks and cafes. Public toilets along the way. Dolphins can be spotted.

On a sunny day this place is a treat for all ages Aberdeen has 2 rivers (River Don and River Dee) and you can walk from 1 mouth to the other visiting the wee fishing village of Footdee or "Fittie" to us locals Plenty food vans along the southern stretch of the beach and a good mixture so something for everyone, there is toilets in this area too Theres some cafe's 5-10mins walk from the food vans and a retail park in the area for some essentials In the summer if you want to see the sunrise with the sound of the waves or climb the broadhill for a better all round view then you've found the right place Can sometimes see the Northern Lights too :)

A beach that stretches as far as the eye can see. Bracing north sea breeze to blow away the cobwebs. Parking along its length with a paved walkway. Popular with joggers and dog walkers.

This is an amazing, peaceful place, it must be nice to live in Aberdeen with this lovely esplanade so close to the city. The sea views are amazing and there are some really nice restaurants and coffee shops. My one complaint is why" The Range" house furnishings were allowed to build a really ugly great warehouse right on prime beachfront property. Surely there must have been other choices at one of many retail estates. It really is a blot on the landscape and spoils the otherwise perfect spot.
