Top secret!

We've got a mission for you in

Portsoy & Cullen

A top secret agent from a foreign spy network, Sven Doublo, has been sent to the north east of Scotland with the mission to destroy the fishing industry. His plan is to activate an underwater device off the coast of Portsoy and Cullen, causing all the fish in the area to swim backwards and head off to the North Sea, emptying the Moray Firth of sea-life! But Spy HQ has uncovered a series of clues that may reveal the deactivation code for the device. Your mission, agents, is to solve these clues and stop this evil deed before it's too late. Good luck out there!

Spy Fish Scupper! - A Treasure Hunt Through Portsoy and Cullen

Are you looking for a fun and exciting day out with your family and friends? Then embark on this self-guided spy mission themed Treasure Trail through Portsoy and Cullen. As you follow the trail, you'll solve sneaky clues set on existing buildings, permanent features, and monuments, just like a true secret agent.

The Trail is split into two parts, starting at the Salmon Bothy near the harbour in Portsoy, and then moving on to the Pet Cemetery in Cullen. From there, you'll explore the viaduct and harbour, piecing together the clues to complete your mission.

Will you be able to crack the code and save the fishing industry in the north east of Scotland?
