Climb Starbank Park in Newhaven for views across the Firth of Forth and, in spring, a blaze of cherry blossom. Walk both park sections and pause among the tulips with the sea in sight.
Full description
Starbank Park sits in Newhaven above the Firth of Forth and is divided into two sections, with the lower part on a hill close to the main street and the water. Reviewers single out spring, when cherry blossom flowers alongside tulips and other colourful plantings, and they praise the sea views and the evident care of the gardeners.
It is dog friendly, with owners and their pets using the open lower area. A visit of around 45 minutes is typical, and the park is open all hours, with mornings and early evenings offering gentle light.

Reviews
The star bank park is more beautiful during the spring season, when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom alongside tulips and many other colourful flowers. The combination of the sea view, fresh air, and vibrant spring scenery makes the place truly breathtaking.
