The village sits approximately 150 metres south from the mainly rocky shore at an elevation of around 40 metres. The ground to the south is set in farmland and rises to around 60 metres, providing extensive views of the Moray coastline, the Moray Firth and the Highland region to the north. Separated to the west from Burghead by farmland and from Hopeman to the east by a closed landfill site and further farmland, the Moray Council Local Plan seeks to retain the village's present small linear nature by preventing housing construction in these areas. Part of the foreshore is designated a "Site of Special Scientific Interest."
