United Kingdom Newhaven Harbour and Lighthouse, Edinburgh
This spot got so much to offer. You can shoot boats, birds, the harbor, the lighthouse, and even more.
Photography Tips
I would check tide times (Leith) before heading there to see where the water is going to be. Tripod can be useful, especially if you visit around sunset time. Make sure you come early to find the desired composition and to avoid other photographers getting the spot you wanted. They built a jetty to the harbor lately so it may look a bit different than in these photos but it's still a really good spot in Edinburgh.
Travel Information
I would say driving here is the best option as there is plenty of car parking spaces here, however, there are several buses that stop at Ocean Terminal or Granton. Check Lothian Buses for the buses you need to take. If you come by bus, remember to take the correct change (£1.70 for a single or £4.50 for a day ticket).
