Explore four stunning sandy beaches with rock pools, dunes and a bustling promenade featuring cafes, splash pads and family-friendly amenities.

Nairn Beach offers families a traditional Scottish seaside experience with four distinct beaches, each with its own character and appeal. Central Beach is the heart of the action, featuring the popular Splashpad, picnic benches and numerous seafront cafes and eateries along a bustling promenade. West Beach is perfect for beachcombers and families interested in exploring rock pools, while also catering to wild swimmers. Whiteness Beach, known as 'The Secret Beach', provides a more peaceful and unspoilt setting ideal for contemplative visits and mindfulness activities. All beaches boast miles of flowing white sands backed by marram-covered dunes, with safe sea water for swimming. East Beach extends towards Culbin Forest and serves as a haven for wildlife spotting and foraging adventures. The venue is extremely family-friendly with comprehensive facilities including parking, toilets, picnic benches and top-up taps across the beaches. Dogs are welcome throughout, and Nairn Beach Wheelchairs offers free wheelchair hire from the Leisure Centre to ensure accessibility for all visitors. Known historically as the 'Brighton of the North' for its popularity as a seaside holiday destination, Nairn Beach provides the perfect setting for memorable family days out just 25 minutes from Inverness.
