This is where the Royal Yacht Britannia is berthed. It was voted Scotland's Best Visitor Attraction and I highly recommend it. Ocean Terminal is also great for dining by the harbour - there is a good mix of restaurants and a couple of bars. There' s a cinema and shopping all under one roof.

I grew up in Joppa, right by the beach. This is a lovely part of the city with lots of lovely little beach side restaurants and cafes. Definitely try out the Beach House and Espie to name just two!
