2025 North Berwick Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

It was more like a short trip to the beach , early April 2022, it was not part of the plan but the beauty of the place took me by surprise and transformed the few hours spent there in a trip to remember :) I suggest Yellowecraig as a place to be seen for those who want to enjoy few hours of freedom away of the crowds 🤟

30 minutes from Edinburgh city centre is North Berwick, a popular get away for Scottish locals. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 North Berwick’s beaches are usually rather uncrowded but is a fantastic spot to do some dog watching 🐶🐾 Tantallon Castle (perched on the edge of a cliff) is also nearby, and offers amazing views of the sea. 🏰 Don’t forget to join a boat tour to the rocks near North Berwick, where you can see wild seals come by for a wee lounge. The place is also home to puffins and gannets, and if you’re lucky? Some adorable baby seals still in they baby white fur 🦭😊 #edinburgh #travel # naturelovers #beachlife

North Berwick is definitely worth seeing while visiting Edinburgh. beautiful nature and great food in local restaurants ☀️❤️#travel #couplestrip #beachlife #naturalwonders #seascapes

#summervacay I recently discovered North Berwick, a truly charming coastal town just half an hour by train from Edinburgh! On a good day, the sea here is an incredibly vibrant blue, making it feel so romantic and wonderfully relaxing. The town isn't very big; I found that half a day was plenty of time to explore it leisurely on foot. It’s definitely a perfect addition to any Edinburgh trip as a lovely side excursion. Restaurant Recommendation: The Herringbone 🍽️💖 I highly recommend The Herringbone! Their salmon seafood chowder and salmon burger were absolutely delicious. Beyond the food, the service was exceptional. After a refreshing walk along the breezy coast, a warm bowl of that chowder was just what I needed to feel cozy again. #Edinburgh #NorthBerwick #Scotland #ScottishCoast

Could not recommend this hotel and it’s team anymore for a weekend away or a golf trip. Great location, beautiful surrounding atmosphere, great staff.

Climb up the hill in North Berwick is the best thing to do there. Although the wind is really strong and cannot even stand still. There are some horses on the trail which was soooo lovely!!! It took us about one and a half hour for return. Choose a pair of hiking boots that will be the best because there are some rocky area which might make your feet sore. There’s a tourist centre near the city centre so you can go there and check where to go!

#timetotravel My experience at the Scottish Seabird Centre in the UK was a fascinating voyage into the world of marine wildlife and conservation. Situated in North Berwick, this unique center welcomed me with its interactive exhibits, live cameras, and insightful displays about seabirds and their coastal habitats. As I observed puffins, gannets, and other seabirds in their natural environment through live camera feeds, and learned about their behaviors and conservation efforts, a sense of connection to nature and its delicate ecosystems enveloped me. The center's location on North Berwick's picturesque waterfront made it an ideal spot for birdwatching and marine exploration. It wasn't just a seabird center; it was a learning hub that celebrated the beauty of Scotland's coastal wildlife, inspiring me to be more conscious of our planet's delicate balance and the importance of preserving it for future generations.

📍North Berwick🌊 I saw many people say that you can take a train directly to the destination in half an hour. We didn’t have a train ticket that day, so we took bus 124 at Prince Street Bus Station🚌 and got off at North Berwick. We saw the sea🌊 4.8p It took about an hour to get there. We sat in the first row on the second floor the whole time. The view was very good👍🏻We saw beautiful scenery along the way🍂 . The town is not big. Look at the sea and blow the wind Put aside the pressure and worries🚮 ❤️Be sure to wear a hat, scarf🧣umbrella☂️Because you don’t know when it will rain and the wind is quite strong. You can find a good weather to go there. . There are many small shops in the town, and there are many vintage shops that are good to visit (and the prices are very beautiful). There are few people on the street, and there are dogs everywhere🐶 . 🥣Bella Picture 8⃣️We had this Italian restaurant for lunch🇮🇹The fish and chips are good 🐦Walk around the bird watching platform, sit down and have a cup of coffee and look at the sea My mood instantly improved🔅 🪨Buy some Bass Rock souvenirs, refrigerator magnets and postcards to take home as collections
