The Moray coast is renowned for being among Scotland’s driest and sunniest regions and Nairn has succeeded in becoming a top seaside resort in Scotland. It has two beaches, excellent ice cream, a kid-friendly splash area, crazy golf, two golf courses, fish and chips, an amazing array of additional dining and drinking options and all the water-based fun you could ask for. Situated on a traffic-free promenade, the town centre is just 10 minutes’ walk from Fairways, a three-bedroom vacation house that welcomes dogs. This lively seaside town is perfect for exploring.
You won’t have to travel far to find more activities if these golf courses and beaches aren’t enough to keep you busy. The “secret beach” of Whiteness is located farther west, and the charming beaches of Burghead, Roseisle, and Lossiemouth—each with its own distinct personality—can be reached by traveling east on the coastal road. An idea for a day trip would be to take a bike ride through Culbin Forest and then make arrangements to take the water taxi to Findhorn.
