Then we amble along Meadowside, headed for the Seabraes Viewpoint via South Ward Road, South Tay Street and Nethergate. Here you will see a spectacular view of the Dundee Waterfront open up, and it is a spot with a variety of creative photoshoot possibilities.It's now time for a break, so we can head to DCA Dundee Contemporary Arts for a drink and a snack (optional).
