Apex Grassmarket Hotel

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful location! Hotel room was comfortable. Could use an update to the bathtub/shower. Clean throughout and staff were very helpful and friendly. Steps from street level to reception were a challenge with luggage. Staff were very quick to help but if they were busy with something else you had to haul it up about 7 steps. From there everything was easy. Would recommend this hotel very highly!"

What beach activities should we do in North Berwick?
The best beach activities in North Berwick involve enjoying the expansive sandy shores and the views across the Firth of Forth.

For families, a visit to West Bay is a must.

There are often rock pools to explore at low tide, providing hours of entertainment for younger visitors. The beach is also a great spot for a picnic, with plenty of space to spread out and enjoy the coastal air.

Couples looking for a more active experience might enjoy a walk along the John Muir Way, particularly the section that runs along the coastline. This path offers stunning views of the Bass Rock and Fidra, and you can access several quieter coves and beaches, such as Yellowcraig, just a short drive or longer walk from the town. Yellowcraig is known for its wide sandy beach and views of the lighthouse on Fidra island, making it a lovely spot for a peaceful stroll or a paddle.

For those interested in wildlife, boat trips departing from the harbour offer opportunities to see the gannets on Bass Rock, a significant seabird colony. While not directly on the beach, these trips provide a unique perspective of the coastline and its natural inhabitants.
