Lossiemouth in Moray, Scotland perches on the north coast at the mouth of the River Lossie, looking out over the Moray Firth. It’s famed for long sandy beaches and dune systems, lively seabird life and regular sightings of bottlenose dolphins offshore, with the shallow Loch Spynie nature reserve just inland.
Once a traditional fishing and shipbuilding harbour, the town expanded in the 20th century and today balances its maritime past with tourism and recreation - surfing, kitesurfing and coastal walks - while RAF Lossiemouth remains a major local employer; the wider area offers easy access to coastal scenery and nearby Speyside whisky country.
