Edinburgh's Coastline

The shoreline fro Granton to Cramond is a mecca for dog walkers, joggers and folk just wandering in general, like myself.

To get here there are a few different options. The buses don't actually take you down to the Village itself, when you see the road there you will understand why.

The number 41 starts at King's Buildings, part of the University, travels through south Edinburgh along Forest Road, The Mound, Hanover Street and George Street through west Edinburgh and into the larger area that is Cramond. I would get off at Gamekeepers Road, it's about a 25-30 minute walk down to the village where you will find the remains of a Roman Fort, a nice wee Kirk (Church) A pub that has been closed, but is recruiting now, so opening soon. A wee walk from the bar and you are down to the harbour. A lot of visitors will want to walk over the causeway to Cramond Islands, but don't get caught out by the tides, plan your journey in advance, the tides will need to be in your favour. Tide times can be found be found here Tide times

There are a number of buses that will drop you at Waterfront Avenue, the 8,19 & 47, but the 16 & 27 will also drop you close enough as well. These buses start at Granton near Edinburgh College. You will see the Granton Gas Holder, aim for that. To the right before you reach this you will spot the restored Train Station of a previous post today. Head down towards the Gas Holder and follow the road round to your right behind the big office block. This Caroline Park Ave, it leads you down to where Granton Castle used to stand, have a wee nose about, The Walled Garden here is open for a couple of hours on Saturday and Sundays. The road/cycle/Walkway lead to West Shore Road, following this to your left leads you down to the East end of Silverknowes Promenade and take you all the way along to Cramond.

If you don't fancy the longer walk along, the 16, 27 & 37 buses take you Silverknowes Parkway, the buses terminate here, then head back the way into town, Silverknowes Golf course is here, to to left is Silverknowes Road, this leads you down to the shore where you can walk either direction toward Cramond, or Granton.

There is a cool place to get refreshments here, either takeaway or sitting in, Boardwalk Beach Club. As well as hot drinks,  ice cream, homemade cake and refreshing iced coolers are available, a welcome pitstop, especially on warmer days, they have ample outside seating, or walk down, catch a bench, or sit on the seafront and enjoy the views to Cramond Island and beyond to Fife.

Another tip, if traveling about Edinburgh the bus service is very good, a fiver will get you unlimited daytime travel. Download Lothian buses app and you wont go wrong  https://www.lothianbuses.com/app/
