Findhorn Bay Local Nature Reserve

Really nice bit of the coastline, especially for twitchers and there were quite a few windsurfers there are as well, pretty breezy for sure. Well worth a visit if you're in the area.

Depressingly full of litter and dumping. Council should get a grip. This is a nature reserve people should know better.

Lovely walks along the beach. Restaurant and ice cream close by. Plenty parking available when we visited.

Good parking but smallish area. Hide has a lock. Notice has phone contacts to obtain entry codes. Good information board. Very quiet on my visit; not much about. Pathways to shoreline.

We started at the bird hide which is point 5 along the nature reserve trail and observed some men digging for razor clams but other than a few large swans, we didn't see much as the tide was out. I'm sure this area is absolutely bustling when the tide is in and the wading birds are much nearer - we could see plenty of them in the distance. We then drove to the beach and walked into the village viewing the harbour and marina areas. As it was a beautiful day, the shorefront eateries were busy and it was nice to see people enjoying the great weather with a drink. There were various boats out in the water, people in canoes and on paddeboards. The local boat club was also in action. We were going to visit the Ice House museum but they don't open until 2pm so we were too early and we were heading to Roseisle so couldn't wait another hour. I'll definitely come back another day as the beach was lovely and I want another chance to see the wildlife

Easy access to great spot. We arrived in dark and rain, so despite busy birdlife, were too late for good viewing.

Quiet only broken by birdsong. We could have been the last people on earth as there was no one else in sight. Very peaceful

River Spey, sea, beach... what's not to like?

Lovely spot
