Parks & Nature

Located a few miles from the city centre, is a charming seaside suburb, with two miles of sand making it perfect for swimming and sunbathing. The Seaside Award-winning beach draws large crowds in good weather and, along with the promenade, hosts a number of popular events, including the annual Big Beach Busk, international volleyball competitions and triathlon events. The Portobello Kayaking and Sailing Club is based here, along with RowPorty, a community-run coastal rowing club. Look out also for the splendid Victorian swimming pool, featuring an original Aerotone and Turkish baths. If you are seeking refreshment, there is a choice of several bars and cafés on the promenade.
