Everything about Aberlady Bay totally explained
Aberlady Bay is a
bay in
East Lothian,
Scotland between
Aberlady and
Gullane.
In
1952, Aberlady Bay became the
UK's first
Local Nature Reserve (LNR) and is served by the
East Lothian Council Rangers.
The
Scottish Ornithologists' Club has
Waterston House as its headquarters at Aberlady, with panoramic views of the Bay.
Aberlady Bay is part of the
John Muir Way, a
long distance footpath from
Fisherrow (
Musselburgh) to
Dunglass. It is also the East Lothian Section of the transnational
North Sea Trail, a path network connecting seven countries and 26 areas.
Wrecks
The wrecks of eight historic (19th or early 20th century) fishing vessels at
Kilspindie have been designated as maritime
scheduled ancient monuments.
Two wrecks of XT-craft, training versions of the
X craft can be seen - in
1946, the craft were towed to the bay, then moored to a concrete block and used for target practice by aircraft of the
Royal Air Force.
The wrecks of the submarines lie
much closer to the low-water mark than the high-water mark and tides in the bay rise
very quickly - those wishing to examine the wrecks should thus take note of the tides and leave plenty of time to return to the shore from the wrecks.
