About the town » North Berwick, East Lothian, Scotland, Great Britain

North Berwick (Scottish Gaelic: Bearaig a Tuath) is a seaside town and former royal burgh in East Lothian, Scotland. It is situated on the south shore of the Firth of Forth, approximately 25 miles east north east of Edinburgh.

Golf courses at the ends of each bay are open to visitors.
