Why fly to Edinburgh?

The sea that skirts the north of Edinburgh, the Firth of Forth, is a pleasant place to try sea kayaking for the first time. Travel into the city centre from the airport by bus of taxi. You can then easily get down to the coast in Leith by the number 22 bus from Prince's Street. Guided trips and kayak rental are available (www.duneideannseakayaking.com) for your kayak outing. The nature of the equipment (and safety considerations) means that this isn't really a plan you can just turn up and do yourself.

Best time to visit

There’s no ‘right’ time to visit Edinburgh. Scotland’s picturesque capital city has something to offer all year round, whether you’re looking for explosive nightlife, shopping or historical gems. It’s magical at Christmas time, though, with a huge ice-skating rink, brilliant Christmas market and blanket of fairy lights. August welcomes the famous Fringe Festival, plus lovely warm temperatures.

Avoid the crowds

Unsurprisingly, Scotland’s capital city is also its most visited, with famous sights like the hilltop castle and the spooky Edinburgh Vaults drawing the crowds all year. Come in March and April or September and October for slightly quieter streets. The temperatures are at their peak in high summer and it can get really crowded, plus the iconic Fringe Festival hits in August.
