Dunbar Camping and Caravanning Club Site

  • Coastal campsite near Dunbar with sea views and surfing beaches.
Wake up each morning to the sound of waves and the invigorating feel of fresh sea air at Dunbar Club Site. Located on the northern coast of East Lothian just an hour east of Edinburgh, this campsite boasts miles of golden sands and some of the best surfing conditions in Scotland. This spacious campsite has over 100 pitches for caravans, motorhomes, campervans, tents, and trailer tents. It benefits from a modern toilet and shower block, recently created dog walking area, and even a wetsuit shower for those who do want to embrace the surf. The campsite is just up the road from the seaside town of Dunbar, which has great restaurants and pubs. Wildlife lovers will relish this campsite thanks to the huge number of seabirds that use the Firth of Forth and Bass Rock as a nesting place. As well as birds, you may be lucky enough to spot a seal or two during your stay. If you’re in need of a day of culture and fine dining, you can catch a train from Dunbar into the Scottish capital Edinburgh, which takes around an hour – iconic streets like the Royal Mile await.
