Attractive fishing village with a neat harbour, a good pub and a shellfish processing plant. Worth exploring before you catch the hourly bus to Montrose.

Johnshaven has been an important fishing village for centuries. In the herring boom 59 boats operated out of the harbour. The harbour itself is interesting, constructed from the local sandstone in late 1800's it has an outer harbour protected by a sea wall and then an inner harbour accessed by a side entrance from the outer harbour.
Today fishing is still a major source of income here along with tourism. Look out for the Fish Festival and do try the Lobster Shop.

There’s a great wee coffee shop right in the harbour and the staff are lovely and friendly. They have vegan cakes and you can have a choice of drinks.
