The Museum of Scottish Lighthouses tells the story of the Northern Lighthouse Board from its creation in 1786 to its operation in the present day. A visit includes entry to the main Museum building which patrons can browse at their, but included in the ticket price is a tour of Kinnaird Head Lighthouse - the Northern Lighthouse Boards first light. The Museum has an on-site cafe and free parking facilities. Fraserburgh Visitor Information Centre is also contained within the site.
Myself and my wife visited the museum of 14th November, travelled from Aberdeen and it was well worth the visit. My wife has an affinity for lighthouses, from her own personal experiences and this was the first time either of us had actually been in or near a lighthouse never mind a number of them. The tour was insightful, with the tour guide being incredibly knowledgeable about the grounds, the lighthouses and its history. The entire exhibition from the lighthouses themselves to the museum was incredibly well kept and displayed, and the way in which it was presented gave you such a great perspective on what kind of life lighthouse keepers used to live, which from today's point of view can only make you appreciate more the choices we have and are allowed to make about our working lives, what we do with them and how far we've came in terms of being able to strike a work/life balance that works for us. The museum took us back to a time long since lost, of days gone by which are very rarely every appreciated these days. Wonderful from start to finish and will go back again to see inside the main lighthouse when it is safe to do so.

A fabulous clean beach that would not look out of place in the Caribbean - just the temperature that gives it away ????. However, despite the chilly sea wind , there were still hardy youngsters playing in the ????, plus a good few dog-walkers out & about, ???? riders, and people up climbing the sand dunes.It was mesmerising watching the white crested rollers crashing in, and fun chasing the raucous seagulls from their gathering spots. Don’t know if it was because there was an abnormally low tide , but there were clumps of stranded jellyfish on the sand, looking for all the world like beached paperweights. I’m an avid beach-comber, but sadly only found one piece of sea-glass whilst there, and there’s not much in the way of ???? to be found either - but a sea of glorious sand! This place would be absolutely mobbed if it was somewhere more temperate.
