Summary[edit]

Description

This location, in the North of Scotland has been popular with visitors for a long time. Here we see the River Findhorn where it reaches the Moray Firth.

On the other side of the water is the Culbin Forest, which was planted to stop the extensive sand dunes from shifting in the wind. Before that it was the largest area of dunes in Britain.

In 1694 an entire village was covered over by the sand and had to be abandoned.

Today visitors come to this area for the extensive beach and a microclimate that belies it's northerly location.
