Located in the old part of Cove, to the south of Aberdeen.  The village itself sprung up around the fishing industry, with the boats berthed on a shingle beach, a gap in the rocks that afforded a natural harbour. During this time, it is estimated that approximately 300 people lived in the area. In the mid 19th century the fishing was at its height, which, over years, has included cod, haddock, salmon, herring and shellfish. The piers and breakwater were constructed in 1878. At the end of World War I the fishing began to decline. At present only a couple of boats pursue shellfish on a part-time basis.
On a sunny day, there is an amazing view over the bay. Â The sun reflects off the water and it's beautiful. Â Kids are often found around the rocky areas looking in the rock pools and just climbing. Â This area is very near where we live and it's easy to forget how lucky we are to live in an area so gorgeous, so we wanted to share this spot with fellow cachers :)
Do take a wander right down the hill and explore the beauty of the harbour.
Yes - this is "only a nano" due to location
