The beach was so quiet when we visited. Beautiful sandy beach, very clean and not busy at all. Well worth a visit and easy parking with a walk across Saltmarsh to reach the beach. It is about a 10 mi…Full review by WelshVal

Plenty of parking, toilets available, lovely clean extensive beach :-) We walked back across the salt marsh. Funny little bridge to nowhere was essential at high tide !! Full review by jillyo2019
Hi, would anybody be able to tell me if there are toilets available and will be open currently with regards to lockdown coming to an end. Thanks in advance.
A:
Suggest you google "East Lothian Council - re-opening of public toilets" for information. Think some opened 11th July.
Hey! Planning to visit this Monday (26th August) and high tide is 11:30am. Will we be able to walk on the beach at all during the day? Or is it completely swallowed up at high tide? The reviews seem to say you can’t access the “bride to nowhere” during this time but I’m still a bit confused - thanks in advance!
A:
There is still a beach at high water but it’s all much better when the tide is out, the bridge is for crossing a deeper channel so that access to main beach achieved earlier but it is also …
There is still a beach at high water but it’s all much better when the tide is out, the bridge is for crossing a deeper channel so that access to main beach achieved earlier but it is also influenced by the phases of the moon ie spring tides, neap tides or in between, hope this info helps.
My husband as mobility problems doesn't use a wheel chair how far is it from the carp ark to the beach thanks Louise McColl

Well the car park is very close to the beach..you can easily take a slow wander. This beach tends not to get overly busy, any time of the year, so that helps when someone may be lacking in confidence on their feet or unsure of their footing in any way. The beach stretches for miles, but you can get on to it just by the car park
To whom it may concern, Is it possible to set up a marquee on a grassy patch for 2 nights with access to Belhaven Beach in June? The occasion would would be a birthday party so ideally a semi isolated spot would be desirable rather than a designated camp site. Kind regards Silas

Hey Silas, Thanks for your question. I don't believe it's possible for you to set up camp there.East Lothian Council have a thing about camping there - you can always phone or email …
Hey Silas, Thanks for your question. I don't believe it's possible for you to set up camp there.East Lothian Council have a thing about camping there - you can always phone or email them and see what they say. Also, due to the tides - the grassy patches are usually covered when the tide is at its' highest. I'm not sure if you are actually allowed to camp in the car park area, again contact the council for more information. Thanks :)
