If you want to get a feel for the Ferry, visit Eduardo's and view the work of some of our local artists, many of whom studied at Dundee's renowned Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design. Situated in Gray Street, next door to Visocchi's, Eduardo's is close to a number of quirky gift shops too where you can pick up a memento of your seaside stay.

Parks & Nature

Miles and miles of clean sandy beach stretching from Broughty Ferry Castle up the east coast as far as the eye can see. There is a large and very good playpark for children which is a hive of activity in the warmer months. Dolphins are a common site in summer and boat tours offer an up-close view. If you enjoy walking or cycling, this is the spot for you.

Situated at the end of the Broughty Ferry Esplanade, near Monifieth, the rock garden is a lovely spot if you enjoy nature, wildlife or horticulture. Managed by a team of volunteers, the garden is easily reached by car, on foot or by bicycle. It actually sits on part of Dundee's much loved Green Circular, a 26-mile cycle route which circumnavigates the city.

Entertainment & Activities

Docked in Dundee, Captain Scott's famous Antarctic Royal Research Ship and it's associated visitor centre is a popular tourist attraction. Sitting cheek by jowl with our stunning new V&A (due to open in September 2018) the Discovery is an icon of Dundee's reinvention from post-industrial backwater to city of art and design.
