Portobello is a coastal suburb of Edinburgh in eastern central Scotland. It lies 3 miles (5 km) east of the city centre, facing the Firth of Forth, between the suburbs of Joppa and Craigentinny. Although historically it was a town in its own right, it is officially a residential suburb of Edinburgh. The promenade fronts onto a wide sandy beach.
The Portobello Promenade is a delightful walk from the Joppa Pump Station all the way towards Leith Harbour. We were there on a blustery, but not raining January day and views of the water and the houses and shops along the way were very enjoyable.
