...in Broughty Ferry

Broughty Ferry is a seaside haven which provides a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.

The area has excellent eating and retail facilities as well as its wonderful location on the seafront and its reputation for excellent bars, restaurants and individual shops.

The sandy beach, which has Blue Flag status, provides access for a host of watersports like jet-skiing, windsurfind, waterskiing and sailing.

Pay a visit to the castle which houses a fascinating collection of artefacts relating to the area's fishing and whaling past. Or simply relax after a stroll along the promenade, in one of the many cafes.
