Lovely beach on the North Sea. Pleasant area to relax and enjoy the breeze, often cold and brisk.....that's on the good days

Visited Carnoustie Beach around 10 PM and found it incredibly calm and beautiful. The serene atmosphere was perfect for a peaceful evening. Best of all, there's no admission fee, making it a great spot to unwind without spending a dime.

A beautiful beach, good for weekend visits. I visited the beach on a windy day. The beach has got a wee park for kids, and if you are planning to have a small hangout with friends, then there are some quiet areas on the edge of the beach. I liked the quietness of the beach, and it was very clean. All the credit goes to the council and fellow citizens for maintaining the beauty of the beach.

Lovely to walk along. Pretty misty both times we went. Limited public toilets and most cafes and areas shut as was out of season. Not clear where the golf range starts and finished so unclear where you can walk at the tip. Not many places to sit if you need regular pit stops. However totally accessible car park and coastal path for prams and wheelchairs.
