Description
The cliffs at the Bullers provide a nesting site in spring for colonies of seabirds, including Kittiwake, Atlantic Puffin, Northern Fulmar, European Shag, Razorbill and Common Guillemot along with Herring Gull and Great Black-backed Gull. Common Eider may also be seen here, and Northern Gannet are frequently seen passing en route to their colonies north at Troup Head and south at Bass Rock. Grey seals may be seen in the bay, and dolphins are often seen passing by offshore.

Access
The area is a popular sightseeing spot, with a car park but no tourist facilities. Access is via the A975 road, which is served by a regular bus service between Peterhead and Aberdeen. The Bullers of Buchan lie on the Buchan coastal footpath, leading south to Slains Castle, Cruden Bay and Whinnyfold, and north to the Longhaven wildlife reserve.
