Arbroath’s RNLI Lifeboat Station houses 1 D Class RIB Lifeboat and 1 B Class (Atlantic 85) RIB Lifeboat with changing facilities for the Crew and the Station Office upstairs. The RNLI Shop is also housed within the Station building.
Throughout Doors Open Days, a member of the Arbroath Crew will be available to take tours round the Station, introducing the visitor to each Class of Lifeboat and giving a brief description of the life of an RNLI volunteer.
The RNLI Shop will be open daily for the visitor to purchase a souvenir to remind them of their visit to the Arbroath Lifeboat Station.
Please note: The tour may have to be terminated if the Arbroath Lifeboat Station gets a “shout” and has to launch the lifeboats (if there is an emergency) to save lives at sea.
Booking is not required.
Doors Open Days is is Scotland’s largest free festival that celebrates places and stories, new and old, and is coordinated nationally by the Scottish Civic Trust.
