East Lothian, Scotland

Beach break

The spot

13 June 2026

Not much for looks - it's a pleasant but featureless beach. A Sandy bay surrounded by a few reefs that can be surfed. Apparently much quieter than the other spots in the area, so I'd recommend taking a look here if the other spots are too busy.

Reached via a single, entirely double-yellowed road, with a 2m height barrier right at the end, so don't get caught out. It's also not free - pay and display. There's a few other areas for parking nearby, like Barns Ness Car Park, but they also has the same height barrier restrictions.
