Cullen Bay

📌 Cullen, Moray
★★★

Smooth sands, interesting rock pools, lack of crowds, nearby refreshments… Cullen Bay ticks all the boxes for a perfect beach – and more than a mile of sand means it’s rarely too crowded here. The beach is backed by an old railway viaduct and the cute cottages of Seatown – the lower portion of Cullen village. It’s also partly divided at the halfway point by a striking rock stacks which look a bit like giant shark fins; head west from here to go rockpooling at low tide.
