Amazing location!
Sep 2021
Having spent quite a lot of time walking round a built up and rather grey city we were astounded to find this huge beach! Not all the stretch is sand but there was quite a big area for children to play where dogs were banned to keep it clean. The Esplanade was well maintained with lots of seats and well-kept grass areas in behind.

Nice walk with a fresh sea breeze
Aug 2021 • Solo
This place really does catch the wind. Cover up if you go for a stroll. Walked all the way down to the Port Control Centre Building.
People were in the sea swimming and lots were enjoying themselves. Slabs of granite on the top of the beach, good for making an impromptu seat. Admired it for a while. Near to the fisherman’s village at the bottom end.

Jellyfish everywhere
Aug 2021
Not a beach to walk on, jellyfish everywhere although there’s not a lot anyone can do about that. The beach is littered with rubbish but no more so than anywhere else.

Great for a Promenade!
Jul 2021
On a sunny day in July we enjoyed watching the brave souls taking a dip in the North Sea. The Fun Fare looked good though we didn't venture in. Lovely family resort to take in the sea air and enjoy an ice cream. Local people were very friendly.

Hidden gem!
Jun 2021
I had no idea Aberdeen had such a lovely long beach. We were following a self-guided walk we'd obtained from the Tourist Information Centre and wouldn't have found this otherwise. Walked along the promenade all the way to the mouth of the Don and saw seals and a mother deer with two youngsters on the island one can see from the bridge over the Don. Delightful.

Fab beach and lovely promenade. A great place for a walk. With lots of cafes, a funfair and historic village all within easy reach. The Sandy beach is extensive and very clean.

A simply amazing, beautiful beach with easy parking & long esplanade area for walking. Plenty of outlets for food etc. Highly recommend, outstanding when we visited on a very warm, sunny day nothing in Europe to rival it!

A really long sandy beach, lovely to take a stroll, or just sit and watch the world go by. Plenty of cafe's and restaurants around. Well worth a visit.

Huge beach
Apr 2021 • Family
This is a huge sandy beach with a promenade to walk along. Along there, there’s cafes, mobile food/drink sellers and the funfair. Plenty of wide open space to walk your dogs or have a picnic. A lovely place to visit.

Bit of a breeze but quite warm - plenty of room for the grandkids to play in the water (up to their knees - they aren't into having the North Sea freezing the rest of their bodies) and on the rocks at the south end. Was hard to get them away.

i would love to help you :)

Suggest some more information signs with the types of wildlife that can be seen and types of plants possibly have a nature walk set out
