The
Local Attractions

Aberdeen is often referred to as the Granite City or Silver City and is Europe's Oil Capital.

The city offers great shopping, nature reserves, parks, long golden sandy beaches, which often plays host to windsurfers, kiting, canoeing and other watersports, along with our very own links golf course.

Just 15 minutes drive will take you out of the city to the beautiful Grampian countryside. Once in the country there are forest and hill walks, salmon fishing, shooting, along with many outstanding golf courses. Slightly further into the Grampian mountains we have many tourist attractions from castles to whisky trails.

There is something for everyone.
