Aberdeen Harbour

Angus Coastal Route

Did you know … Aberdeen Harbour is one of the best places in Scotland to see dolphins? You can often spot them from the shore but there are also boat tours available that will take you closer. Discover more about the harbour’s history as a fishing port, ship building site and hub for the offshore oil industry at the Aberdeen Maritime Museum nearby. While you’re in Aberdeen why not visit St Machar’s Cathedral and explore the historic streets of Old Aberdeen? You could even do some shopping at Union Square Shopping Centre or catch a show at His Majesty’s Theatre.
