Coastal reserve with saltmarsh, rocky shore and grassy dunes—strong for shorebirds, migratory waders, seals and wide coastal panoramas. Visit at golden hour or low tide for exposed rock pools and reflections; spring and autumn migration yield peak bird activity. Flat, accessible paths from The Esplanade; free entry and nearby on-street/Esplanade parking. Combine with Broughty Ferry pier and castle for context shots. Expect breezy conditions and variable light; weekdays are quieter.
