    Overview

    On Scotland's sunshine coast, to the east of the country's capital, Edinburgh. 

    Our peaceful Dunbar Club campsite is just a stone’s throw from the popular East Lothian seaside town of the same name and adjacent to Whitesands Bay - a long stretch of sandy surfing beach.

     

    Spectacular landscapes surround the campsite, ensuring wherever you are pitched you have a stunning view. Seaward the impressive views extend over the Firth of Forth and Bass Rock – temporary nesting spot for 150,000 seabirds during peak season.


    The campsite is well laid out and spacious with 115 pitches, some of which are hardstands. Modern facilities, including a wetsuit shower are available.


    Dunbar, three miles from the campsite, offers shops, places to eat and more beaches. East beach, minutes from the town centre is great for bathing, paddle boarding and sea kayaking.


    Inland other attractions include East Links Family Park with animals and a narrow gauge railway; the Museum of Flight at East Fortune and the Scottish Seabird Centre in North Berwick, where you can view gannets, puffins and seals from interactive live cameras.

    Local area

    Belhaven Beach

    Just a short walk north of Dunbar, Belhaven Beach is an attractive, sandy beach popular with tourists. This stretch of water is possibly best known for the ‘Bridge to Nowhere’ which, at high tide, is submerged and creates the illusion of serving no purpose.

    Belhaven Brewery

    Take a trip to Belhaven Brewery and discover the process of Scottish brewing. The brewery recently celebrated its 300th birthday and is a great day out for ale-enthusiasts.

    Preston Mill and Phantassie Doocot

    You might be surprised to find a Dutch-style conical roof in East Lothian, but it makes for a wonderful photograph-opportunity. The mill featured as Lallybroch in the popular TV show, Outlander.

    Scottish Seabird Centre

    A trip to the Scottish Seabird Centre is a fascinating, free family day-out. Control live interactive cameras and study some of Scotland’s stunning seabirds.
