Great little place tucked away at the far end of the beach front in Aberdeen. Quaint little houses dating back to the olden days of the fishing industry in Aberdeen. Locals are friendly and welcoming More

I came across Fittie quite accidentally while out walking one day. Quite the hidden gem! Lovely little old fishing village. Well preserved quaint houses. Definitely worth a wee visit! Can watch the ships comming and going from the harbour too and possibly even see the dolphins!! More
