Local attractions around Aberdeen
Published: 01/12/06
If you plan on exploring the area of Scotland close to Aberdeen, there is plenty to entertain you, and lots to see within a short distance of the city itself. The best time for visiting Aberdeen is in late spring and early autumn when the weather is best, and when the northern lights are sometimes visible in the sky around midnight from Aberdeen Beach away from the streetlights.
The Stratosphere Science and Nature Museum is a short drive in your Aberdeen car hire, and its many hands on attractions and exhibits have made it one of Scotland's most popular tourist sites.
Storybook Glen is just outside Aberdeen, and offers a range of attractions themed around popular children's stories and fairytales, and is a great place to take the whole family on a sunny day.
