Find all that is lovely about Scotland in Angus.
Angus has it all - the coast, the hills, the glorious countryside, a tradition of great music and rich cultural endeavour, set among historic towns, villages, castles and museums.
Good trunk roads and the main East Coast rail line make it easy to get into the heart of Angus.
The fine beaches (including Montrose with Blue Flag status) and red sandstone cliffs of the Angus coast offer 50 miles of unspoiled coastline. Lunan Bay is a must for all lovers of the sea and coast. Angus has some of the driest weather in the UK, so you can enjoy beautiful sunrises and sunsets at this most idyllic location.
The dramatic cliffs of Boddin Point (at the north point of Lunan Bay) offer another, different coastline to marvel over. If you like exploring rocky shorelines and rock pools or just enjoying being near the sea, with its sense of history and great views, then this is a superb spot.
Why not explore by map to pinpoint the best sights and attractions in Angus.

Edzell and Kirriemuir offer magical gateways to the magnificent Angus Glens. Walkers and cyclists love the Glens, with their varied skylines and habitats.
A haven for wildlife and a peaceful, accessible refuge from the hurly burly of modern life, the Angus Glens are the foothills of the mighty Cairngorm Mountains. Generations of our Pictish ancestors have inhabited this land, and have left their mysterious carved stones and ancient forts for us to ponder.
