Cullen is an attractive, golden sandy beach to the west of the village of the same name. It overlooks Cullen Bay, which gives the waters here some degree of shelter from the strongest currents, making it a good beach for swimming and snorkelling. The beach is perhaps best known for its rock formation; The Three Kings beach stack. Legend has it that these 4 metre tall quartzite stacks are the grave stones of three Norse Kings who died at the Battle of Bauds in 962. Cullen Links Golf Club can be found behind the beach, with views over the bay. The beach is also popular for water sports such as surfing and sailing, and for fishing. Dolphins are common along this stretch of coastline, and if you’re lucky you may catch a glimpse of a pod. Free parking is available underneath the railway viaduct which offers direct access on to the beach. Toilets are now open here in summer. Next to the car park is a grassy area with picnic tables offering excellent views of the town, beach, and surrounding coastline.

This is a wonderful sandy beach for a walk when the tide is out. Beautiful views along the coast and of the viaduct you pass under when entering the car park and great for spotting wildlife.
