Fraserburgh Small Harbour Aberdeenshire, Scotland, UK. Fraserburgh Harbour is situated in Aberdeenshire in the North-East corner of Scotland and is ideally positioned for the fishing grounds of the North and East of Scotland, as well as being near the North Sea oil and gas fields and the emerging offshore renewables market. The location also makes it well placed for trade with Scandinavia and the Baltic seaports. Fraserburgh Harbour Commissioners are committed to providing first-class services to the fishing fleet. This commitment has been demonstrated over the years through deepening projects which have provided safe berthing facilities and two of the most up to date fish markets in the UK. Both completely chilled markets are capable of maintaining a temperature of +1ÂºC allowing landings of fish and Nephrops over 24 hours, five days per week with the fish being kept in prime condition for the sales that take place at a later period. The markets cover 3100 square metres and can handle 6,000 boxes of fish daily. The very successful summer and autumn squid fishery take place a few miles from the port and vessels often choose to land through Fraserburgh Fishmarket.
