Things to do in North Berwick, Scotland: The Best Nature & Parks

November 30, 2021 Malia Yoakum

North Berwick (/nɔːrθ ˈbɛrɪk/; Scottish Gaelic: Bearaig a Tuath) is a seaside town and former royal burgh in East Lothian, Scotland. It is situated on the south shore of the Firth of Forth, approximately 25 miles (40 km) north-east of Edinburgh. North Berwick became a fashionable holiday resort in the nineteenth century because of its two sandy bays, the East (or Milsey) Bay and the West Bay, and continues to attract holidaymakers. Golf courses at the ends of each bay are open to visitors.

Bass Rock

Reviewed By V9314JIrichardc

Hope this is the correct boat. Booked Braveheart with Dougie to take us to the Bass Rock. Superb experience. Dougie took us within 6 ft of the rock. As well as being a superb skipper, he is immensely knowledgeable about the history of the rock and it's variety of bird life. A great trip.

We enjoyed a rib boat trip with Robin skippering and the very friendly and informative Aislinn. We saw many seabirds as expected but also saw several pods of dolphins and seals. The guide was very good with local information and facts as well as pointing out all the wildlife. A great tour with plenty to see.
