Skaterow - The shore

 

Skaterow - The shore
At the bottom of Skaterow Road is the Braehead where one can look out at the North Sea. The cliff path to the beach is now an easy stroll since the construction of a good path by the Newtonhill Village Association in the 1980s. Before that time it was muddy and steep. The remains of the old pier can be seen at low tide. It was demolished for safety reasons in the early 1980s. In the bay you will see eider ducks. There are still fishermen's huts, mainly for pleasure now, though a few boats still put out to sea for lobster and crabs.
