Tips

  • Dan Hobson

    Dunbar Castle was one of the strongest fortresses in Scotland and has been occupied as a defensive position ever since the 7th century. These days, you cannot get too close to the ruins but they still make for an impressive sight.

  • Loads of nesting kittiwakes in the ruin of the castle walls during the summer. Also nice to watch the fishermen going to and fro out the harbour.
