Cramond Beach & Cramond Island Free Tour
Overview
On arrival, we'll take a walk along the seafront, passing the small harbor, the beach and the famous World War II defense pillars, which are now one of the most photogenic settings in the area.
Depending on the time of the tide, it will be possible to cross the passage linking the mainland to Cramond Island. This crossing is only made when it is safe to do so, during low tide, and allows you to explore the island and enjoy unique views of the sea and the coast.
During the walk there will be several photo opportunities, both on the beach and on the island and along the route.
After the tour, we return to Edinburgh using public transport again.
