Scotland's only mainland gannet colony. A wonderful, wild clifftop nature reserve with over 3,000 pairs of nesting gannets. It's also a great place for spotting whales and dolphins and in spring you'll see lots of other seabirds including the odd puffin!

This family run restaurant is situated merely 2 minutes away from the entrance to the nearby aquarium. Serving British and simple Italian meals, this restaurant was great. the fish and chips (can be made either breaded or battered). As it is run by a husband and wife team, there is this tangible 'home-cooking' feel to the meals.
The restaurant is family-friendly, with raised baby seats available. The staff are incredibly helpful despite the near chaotic scenes around lunch-time..
Definitely another gem in the village of MacDuff. Highly recommended, particularly for hungry families.
