Get on your bike and explore the Moray Firth Coast

December 13th 2023

There is no better way to explore the rugged headlands and panoramic seascapes of the Moray Firth Coast than by bike. The Sail Loft regularly hosts cycling groups and enthusiasts, who are keen to explore this beautiful part of the north east of Scotland on two wheels.

Portsoy has excellent cycle routes suitable for those who like the challenge of a more rugged terrain and there are also routes which suit a gentler, more leisurely pace. Explore the Old Harbour, the coastal paths and take in the views along the cliff routes – make sure you look out for bottlenose dolphins, which can often be spotted out in the bay.
The Sail Loft offers secure cycle storage and wash down facilities, so you can ensure your bike remains safe and secure for the duration of your stay.
