5 of the most beautiful beaches in Scotland

If you’ve been to a beach in Scotland you know how jaw dropping they are!
Across the country you’ll find beautiful hidden bays, coves, shores, long stretches of coastline and more to enjoy. Dip your toes in the water, enjoy a family day out and build sandcastles, or bring the pooch and head for a relaxing stroll.
St Ninian’s Isle on Shetland is a stunning natural sand tombolo with sea either side. It’s a truly picturesque spot on the map and a great choice if you’re looking for some place to go for a wander.
In East Lothian, not far from the Scottish capital, Seacliff beach sees walkers, families, and even horse riders everyday enjoy the incredible scenery and views out to the Bass Rock and across to Fife.
Tucked away in the North Highlands of Wester Ross, Achnahaird Beach is considered to be one of Scotland’s best beaches. Boasting white sandy shores, rock pools and panoramic jaw-dropping surroundings, it’s a must-visit!
Lunan Bay is a secluded spot on the Angus coastline and featuring the crumbling ruins of Red Castle perched above the shore. With sand dunes and low cliffs surrounding the beach, it’s a quaint little setting for an afternoon of exploring and walking.
A town that needs little introducing, St Andrews is home to West Sands Beach, a long stretch of sand shores back by sand dunes and plenty of golfing opportunities. Try out exhilarating watersports or enjoy the views on a Sunday stroll with the family.
