A walk round Dunbar Harbour

In this weeks Scottish Vlog, we take a journey about 30 miles along the east coast of scotland. We head out of Edinburgh, into east lothian and the town called Dunbar. Dunbar is a coastal town at the mouth of the Firth of Forth and right beside the north Sea. We take a walk round this beautiful harbour which has played an important role in Scottish History.

As a boy living in Dunbar during the 1960`s, i used to play on top of the castle, plenty of access then and in the cove below. If i remember correctly, in those days there used to be chains fastened into the castle waterline and i thought that this was something to do with the old dungeons. Happy days.

47 years ago, when I was knee high to a grasshopper, I went to Dunbar, courtesy of Nazareth house in Edinburgh. You could see the harbour mouth from the swimming pool (yes, there was slides, even then) I sat on a tiled ledge absolutely riveted. Watching the fishing boats coming out. There was a play area with ground to air cannons that you could sit on, with a wheel that you turned with a handle to move it from side to side. Dunbar was my first seaside experience and I still remember it now. Unforgettable!

Spent a month back in Edinburgh in 2019 with my sister who hadn't been back since 1984. We went to Dunbar one.day and.like you fell in love with the peace, beauty and tranquility of Dunbar Harbour and Castle. Thanks for bringing back the memories. 👍

Lovely day for a video. I geek out about walking through history, when it happens. I love knowing there are other kindred souls about. Thanks for another wonderful show and tell, Tony!😀

I've been there once a year or so ago i got the bus directly from Edinburgh its a really nice journey going through small towns like Haddington and Bellhaven where the beer is made. You are correct Dunbar is a beautiful wee place. When i visited Dunbar i walked around the harbour.
You can also get the borders train from Waverly Station to Tweedbank then get the bus from Tweedbank to Melrose. I did that journey and it is such lovely place to visit i walked around the Abbey ruins. You can also get the borders bus from Waterloo place to Galashiels then you can get the connection to Melrose, or Selkirk and other wee towns in the borders and it is such a picturesque place to visit and enjoy.

Well done Tony for visiting Dunbar, we have a caravan at Seton Sands and make a point at least once a month to visit Dunbar, you'll have to mention John Muir the next visit. Love your videos thankyou sooo much 💕👍 xx

I love the way you are so informative in your videos. I’ve learned a lot from the way you simply tell the story of each place you visit. This page is what I’ve been looking for to learn more about your beautiful country. I love Edinburgh but hope you do more videos of different places to visit.

I loved a wee visit every now & then to The black Agnes pub was a favourite for a bite to eat. Don’t know about these days but 15 years ago it was up there on the favourite list x

[ledahl]

Thank you so much for this. I love being near the sea and do not often have the opportunity. You just gave me that, and a small trip as well. Blessings. You are in a great club of us that struggle getting words out, lol.
