I love wandering along Portobello beach. It’s only a short trip from Edinburgh city center to get to the coast. Despite that, it sometimes feels as if you’ve traveled miles to a distant holiday destination. And it does look particularly beautiful when the sun is out and the sky is blue.
I’ve learnt to always take my camera along when I’m heading down to Porty – there’s often an unexpected photo moment to be had somewhere along the beach!
And if you’re heading down that way, it’s well worth dropping in to the Beach House cafe on Portobello prom. It has recently reopened after a big refurbishment, and is twice as big. Just remember to keep me a seat!
