Yellowcraig

Yellowcraig is partly within the Firth of Forth Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).

It is bordered to the north by the Firth of Forth, to the south by the village of Dirleton[2] and Dirleton Castle,[3] to the east by the North Berwick West Links golf course,[4] and to the west by the Archerfield Estate and Links golf courses.

A visitor car park lies 270 metres (300 yd) south of the beach.

[7] Yellowcraig is on the John Muir Way, a 73-kilometre (45 mi) long distance footpath between Fisherrow, Musselburgh and Dunglass, named in honour of the conservationist John Muir, who was born in Dunbar.

[10] The East Lothian Countryside Ranger Service co-ordinates the day-to-day management of this site.
