Peffersands beach is situated north of Belhaven Bay, boasting a sandy shoreline with an abundance of rocks towards the north of the mouth of the River Tyne. The beach is backed by sand dunes and is part of the John Muir country park, providing a picturesque setting for a walk or birdwatching excursion.
The area surrounding Peffersands beach is home to several nature reserves, including St. Baldred's Cradle, which is located at the southern end of the beach. This reserve offers stunning views of the Firth of Forth and provides an ideal spot for observing local birdlife.
Access to Peffersands beach is gained by turning down Limetree Walk from the A198, with parking available at the end of the road. A walking track leads from the car park to the beach, although visitors should be aware that there are no facilities at this remote location. The nearest town is Dunbar, approximately 2 miles away.
