Aberlady Bay Local Nature Reserve

Yet another advert for ‘ooh, get you East Lothian and your pretty beaches too!’ And for this one, you get a couple of free rusting, abandoned midget submarines too! Only when the tide is out, mind.
Aberlady’s nature reserve is a lovely, easy enough walk that can keep you occupied for a couple of hours, or you can cut straight to the point, and head down to some gloriously sandy beaches, with some not so tropical waters, but still lovely for a paddle. Did I mention the submarines? We sadly missed them, spending too long wandering around the headlands, but it’s a wonderful place to go to when you want to escape from the world.
Oh and new found fact, this was the first nature reserve, appointed in 1952. So go there, and give a wee thanks to those that did so, because Aberlady is worth it!
