Owned and managed by the RSPB since 1976, Fowlsheugh is a spectacular site to view seabirds in the summer months. Situated on Scotland’s east coast, just south of Stonehaven and a 30-minute drive from Aberdeen, the location makes for a wonderful walk year-round, but for the added bonus of 130,000 breeding seabirds, May to August is the best time to visit. The seabird cliff colony consists of kittiwakes, razorbills, guillemots, puffins and fulmars and, thanks to the beautiful cliff-side location, out at sea you may also spot dolphins, minke whales and grey seals, making for a blissful wildlife experience.
