Attractions Near St Andrew Blackadder Church
FidraFidra is a currently uninhabited island in the Firth of Forth, 4 kilometres northwest of North Berwick, on the east coast of Scotland. The island is an RSPB Scotland nature reserve. Like the other islands near North Berwick, Fidra is the result of volcanic activity around 335 million years ago. Fidra consists of three sections; a hill at one end with the lighthouse on it; a low-lying section in the middle, effectively an isthmus; and a rocky stack at the other end.
St Andrew's Old KirkThe St Andrew’s Kirk lies behind North Berwick High Street and adjacent to the Lodge grounds. Now a roofless ruin this Church was built between 1658 and 1664 as a replacement to the original church. The tower was added onto St Andrew’s Kirkports in 1771 and the long disused Kirk bell was rung again. For many years the Kirk remained as a picturesque ruin as was envisaged by the last congregation but by 2009 the distinctive bell shaped roof of the tower became unsafe and had to be removed.
Scottish Seabird CentreThe Scottish Seabird Centre is a marine conservation and education charity, that is supported by a 5 star visitor attraction in North Berwick, East Lothian, Scotland. It contains interactive wildlife cameras which allow visitors to observe northern gannets, Atlantic puffins, shags, cormorants and other seabirds on the islands in the Firth of Forth. Additional wildlife includes seals and occasional sightings of dolphins and whales.
Milsey Bay BeachMilsey Bay is a sandy beach at the eastern end of North Berwick. It has lovely views out over the Firth of Forth and the Bass Rock some 2 kilometres offshore. It is a perfect place for swimming, walking, exploring rock pools, sun bathing or for a family day out. There is a boat pond built into the rocks which holds the water when the tide is out, providing a place for children to sail boats and paddle.
North Berwick Golf ClubThe North Berwick Golf Club provides a unique day of golf steeped in tradition, with a hefty dose of challenge on a true links course, similar to the one at St. Andrews. The golf course starts in town and stretches along the Firth of Forth shores before coming back to where it began, providing breathtaking views of beaches, islands and the Fife hills. Nature laid the course out at the club with a rich history that counts itself among the world's oldest and hosted legendary 19th-century challenge
North Berwick LawNorth Berwick Law is actually a volcanic plug that erupted from the landscape over 300 million years ago. The summit area contains relics of old look-out posts from the C18 as well as WW2. A replica whale's jawbone tops the summit; replacing sets of jawbones that have been located here for over 250 years. Superb views from the summit of the outer Forth estuary. A waymarked path leads up to and back from the top of the Law.
