Disgrifiad
The often forgotten about East Coast of Scotland. What it lacks in stunning scenery compared to the West it makes up with a dramatic coastline from sandy beaches to rugged cliffs. Some of the most stunning castles, weirdest tales and unbelievable Wildlife. Minke Whale, Humpback Whale, Sei Whale, Pilot Whale, Common bottlenose dolphin, white beaked short nose dolphin, common dolphin, puffins plus more seabirds, grey and harbour seals have all been seen from our coastal tours along the east coast.
On top of this incredible list of marine life to see, the east coast also has generally less winds and NO MIDGE. So you can enjoy camping, getting changed after paddling and an alfresco beverage without being bothered by the pesky midge.
