Aberdeen - all beaches

We had a pleasant time during our brief visit. It's not a large venue, but it was enjoyable. However, it didn't quite live up to the advertising. On the bright side, the free parking was a definite bonus.

This is one of my favorite places to visit. It's a pleasant walk from either the car park at Forvie Nature Reserve in Collieston or the car park at Newburgh. The bay is secluded and beautiful, and I've enjoyed the spectacular scenery in all kinds of weather. In the summer, there is an abundance of wildlife, including various birds on the reserve's lochs before reaching the bay. It's definitely worth a visit any time of year, and my dogs absolutely love it, which adds to the experience.

This beach is stunning, offering breathtaking views of the bay. However, parking is quite limited, which can be challenging on weekends and other busy times. Additionally, access to the beach isn't the easiest; we had to cross some stepping stones over a stream, or alternatively, you can go over the dunes.

This beach is stunning and relatively unknown, making it a peaceful spot. The best parking option is Donmouth Road Car Park, from which it's just a simple 3-minute walk to the beach. It's an excellent location to observe seals and their pups, but please be mindful not to disturb them. The beach stretches out for a long distance, perfect for a walk on a sunny day. It's also a fantastic place to watch the sunset.
