City of Granite - Land of Treasures

Set on a coastline described by National Geographic magazine as, ‘one of the world’s top-rated’, Aberdeen is a gem of a city, with its granite architecture, its surrounding area a treasure trove of beauty spots, 55 golf courses, eight distilleries, historic sites, cultural attractions and glorious beaches (stroll a mile-long golden strand just 10 minutes from the city centre).

As you might expect of a city that is Scotland's third largest ...

... and the oil capital of Europe – there are great restaurants, bars and cafés aplenty, alongside festivals and events to suit all tastes. Explore beyond the city limits and you take in more of that breath-taking cliff-strewn coast, uncover picturesque fishing villages, go back in time to ancient castles and enjoy the spectacle of Highland Games in places like Braemar.

And where else can you see magical dolphins off the shore of a major city?

The stunning Cairngorms National Park isn’t too far inland, with its towering mountains, gleaming lochs and enough sporting pursuits to satisfy the most energetic. Also nearby is majestic countryside with a long Royal heritage, from Queen Victoria to this day. Crown your trip - discover lands full of history. Fly to Aberdeen with Loganair.

Dolphin watching

Dolphin watching:  Aberdeen Harbour mouth is one of the best places in Europe to spot bottlenose dolphins and Scotland is home to the largest in the world. You may also see other marine mammals like seals or even whales. Aberdeen Harbour Tours will take you out to meet the beautiful creatures on weekends and public holidays.

Swing away

Summer days in the North of Scotland are ideal for golfers, who find they can play to their hearts’ content from early morning through to late evening.

From Championship courses such as Cruden Bay and Trump International to smaller local courses, Aberdeenshire has 55 courses for you to choose from - the only question is what one do you play first?
