Craig Brady is a picturesque coastal area located in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Situated on the northeastern coast of Scotland, Craig Brady is known for its stunning cliffs and slopes that offer breathtaking views of the North Sea.

The cliffs in Craig Brady are a prominent feature of the landscape, with their rugged and dramatic formations. They rise steeply from the shoreline, creating a stunning backdrop against the crashing waves. These cliffs are composed of various rock types, including sandstone and granite, which add to their unique charm.

Adjacent to the cliffs are sloping areas, where the land gradually descends towards the sea. Covered in lush vegetation, these slopes are home to a diverse range of plant and animal species. Visitors can enjoy leisurely walks or hikes along the slopes, taking in the stunning scenery and observing the local wildlife.

Due to its exposed coastal location, Craig Brady experiences a relatively cool and windy climate throughout the year. The area is also prone to rainfall, particularly during the winter months. However, this does not deter visitors who come to appreciate the area's natural beauty and the tranquility it offers.

Craig Brady is a haven for nature enthusiasts and outdoor adventurers alike. Its towering cliffs and sloping landscapes provide ample opportunities for activities such as rock climbing, birdwatching, and photography. Additionally, the area attracts geologists and researchers interested in studying the unique geological formations found in this part of Aberdeenshire.

With its stunning cliffs, sloping landscapes, and abundant wildlife, Craig Brady is a must-visit destination for those looking to immerse themselves in Scotland's natural beauty.

Puffin at the Bullers of Buchan Sadly, there seems to be less puffins this year than usual on the cliffs at the Bullers of Buchan. Possibly due to the very extreme weather whilst they were at sea this season.
