A once bustling port, today Buckie is a pleasant fishing town ideally placed as a base for exploring some of the highlights of the Moray Coast. It is either the beginning or the termination of the Speyside Way (depending on your direction of travel) and also lies on the route of the Moray Coast Trail.

The spectacular rock formation of Bow Fiddle Rock is the obvious draw, but the coastal walking found here in general is superb. Ospreys can be seen from nearby Spey Bay and whales and dolphins can often be spotted in the firth.

Buckie Harbour

Highlight • Structure

Buckie harbour is an established commercial port with four basins. Currently servicing the operations and maintenance craft associated with the Beatrice Demonstrator turbines, the port has a proven track record of supporting the activity associated with offshore renewable energy developments and has the capacity, supply chain links and geographic location to embrace further expansion in this area.

Historically an important fishing harbour, Buckie also provides a complete servicing package for the fishing fleet. It is also home to a successful manufacturing, boat repair, cargo handling and fishing businesses, as well as our dredger, MV Selkie.

Up to 100,000 tonnes of cargo are handled each year ranging from bulk shipments of timber, stone, foodstuffs to fabricated steel modules.
