Seals on beach

Newburgh Beach is a long stretch of sand backed by impressive dunes and offers spectacular views across the North Sea.

Beach Carpark

To reach the high level viewpoint, on leaving the Beach Road car park take the gravel path towards the boardwalk.

Beach Boardwalk

Walk 50 metres along the boardwalk and where it divides take the right hand boardwalk which climbs parallel to the golf course until you reach the high level viewpoint. The James McBey panel is located here.

Visitors can enjoy walking, wildlife spotting and photography. Please be mindful of protected habitats and keep dogs under control where required.

The historic Lifeboat House is an important part of Newburgh's maritime heritage and stands near the beach overlooking the coast.

Lifeboat Shed Museum

It serves as a reminder of the village's long connection with lifesaving at sea and is a popular landmark for visitors exploring the area.
