Scottish Seabird Centre
The Scottish Seabird Centre is an award winning wildlife visitor centre and one of Scotland's five star attractions. From its stunning location overlooking the sea and islands of the Forth, visitors enjoy a close encounter with nature to remember.
The ultimate in remote viewing, cameras on the islands beam back live panoramas and close-ups onto giant screens of such good quality that visitors can even read the rings on individual birds' feet!
World famous Bass Rock gannets to comical puffins in spring. Guillemots huddled together like penguins on the sea clifffs and the fluffy white newborn seals on the Isle of May. Wading birds along the shore in winter and the occasional rare and spectacular sightings of dolphins, porpoises and whales in summer. You can enjoy it all at the Scottish Seabird Centre.
