aboutSectionText

March into Britain's mightiest artillery fortress for an unforgettable experience. You can explore an enormous military base protected by almost 1.6km (1 mile) of massive walls. You can gain an insight into life as a Redcoat in a garrison fortress, built in 1748-69, that has barely changed in almost 250 years of active service. You could also join one of our Dolphin Watches, scouring the Moray Firth for its resident population of bottlenose dolphins. Opening times: 29 Mar to 30 Sept: Daily, 9.30am to 5.30pm (last entry 4.30pm). 1 Oct to 28 Mar: Daily, 10am to 4pm (last entry 3pm). We recommend booking online to guarantee entry.
