EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 1900s and join the crowds of Edinburgh residents enjoying a sunny day at Portobello Beach. This charming photograph, captured circa 1901, transports us to a simpler era when a day at the seaside was a much-anticipated treat. Located on the outskirts of Scotland's historic capital city, Portobello Beach has been a popular destination for locals and visitors alike since the 1800s. In this image, we see the sandy shoreline dotted with colourful umbrellas, sunbathers, and children playing in the shallow waters. The promenade, lined with grand Victorian buildings, stretches along the beachfront, offering a scenic stroll for those seeking a leisurely respite from the sun. The atmosphere is lively and jovial, as day-trippers revel in the simple pleasures of a day by the sea. Families build sandcastles, couples stroll hand in hand, and friends engage in lively conversations. The joy and camaraderie are palpable, making this photograph a poignant reminder of the enduring appeal of the seaside. As we gaze at this historical image, we are reminded of the rich history and traditions that define Edinburgh and Scotland. The photograph serves as a testament to the power of community, connection, and the simple joys of a sunny day by the sea.
