Portobello Beach, Edinburgh

Address Portobello, Edinburgh, Scotland Map, Website

Edinburgh is a fantastic city with countless activities for children. If you want to get away from the hussle and bustle take a number 26 bus from the city centre to Portobello Beach. It's a great place to walk with your baby in the pram or to let the kids run around, paddle or build sandcastles. Afterwards, head to The Beach House for lunch or a delicious home made cake. It's really child friendly and even has games to keep the kids amused.

If you have time on your way back into town, take a hike up Arthur's Seat for stunning views of the city. Take some breadcrumbs to feed the ducks and if you can find one a piece of cardboard so that older kids can slide on their way back down.
