Dunbar Port

The port is probably the most interesting place in Dunbar. For one thing, it was built on rocks and accessing it is quite dangerous. Entering and exiting the port can only be accomplished by the most experienced sailors. The port was built in this manner to protect the area from storms and also to keep the water temperature warmer which influences the entire atmosphere. You can also see seals swimming and playing here (which attracts the attention of visitors, especially children). If you look at the curious shape of the rocks in the harbor which have been eroded over the years, you'll notice that they're similar to those that form the famous Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland.
