The picturesque village of Gardenstown in Gamrie Bay that is surrounded by majestic cliffs and rolling farmland. From here you can get a commanding view of the Moray Firth. It is a lively fishing village where you can see the fishermen hard at work. You might even get to go out on a fishing trip with them for the ultimate thrill while on vacation. Although the village itself dates back to 1720, there is evidence that it was settled long before this. The ruins of St. John’s Chapel stand as a testament to the defeat of the Danes during a Norse raid. Although the main economy of Gardenstown stems from fishing, this is a popular tourist destination. It is located within close proximity of several golf courses and a return to the village after a day on the course offers a peaceful setting for visitors to enjoy the evening. It is said that about one-third of the marine life in the world can be found in this area. Enjoy the sounds of the sea smashing against the cliffs and the sound of the sea birds as you take a walk through the town. There is also a sandy beach where you can enjoy swimming in the ocean or relaxing in the sun.
