The Royal Burgh of Montrose is the northern-most coastal town in Angus. Located around a natural harbour, it continues its strong affinity with the sea as a source of support services for Scotland's North Sea oil industry.

It has much to explore, with its internationally important wildlife sanctuary at the Montrose Basin Wildlife centre, aviation history at Montrose Air Station Museum - the first operational air station in Britain - the beautiful 18th century House of Dun, which contains mementoes of family life at the time, and spectacular, award-winning, unspoiled sands at St Cyrus and Lunan Bay.
