Changes to Stanley Gate Code Access

June 29, 2023

Starting today, should you wish to obtain the code for the gate at Stanley to access the River Tay, you will need to book this through the JustGo system.

This will be quick and straightforward, and follows the same process as booking any other SCA event. The advantage is we can ensure that only SCA members are able to access the code, which should ensure we can keep the agreement with the landowner in place, allowing us to continue to enjoy the access we are accustomed to.


Some more background on the decision to make this change:


The code is only available for SCA Individual Members and is an arrangement made between SCA and the landowner. Unfortunately the landowner has had numerous problems in recent months resulting from misuse of the code. When challenged, some individuals have said they have bought the code from SCA members, joined a club to get the code, been passed it by SCA members and so on. The landowner has been faced with abusive behaviour, littering, fires on the beach and more. 


How it will work:


The code will be issued by email immediately upon registering here. The code will be changed on a regular basis. 

We ask that you do not request the code more than 7 days ahead. 

If you are visiting as a group, only one person needs to request the code, but please do not share the code beyond the group. 


We kindly ask you to please be respectful to the landowner and not put this arrangement at risk. If the issues continue, the landowner is likely to end the arrangement and prevent any vehicle access. 


Please feel free to get in touch with any questions during office hours.
