I can understand the need for parking charges in busy city centres, but these car parks are rarely full. This strikes me as a profit making scheme. Surely in a democratic society we have the ability to decide if we want to pay to park at our beach. If so, I say no!

Collecting and policing the charge the consume much of the revenue. Finally, you would have to remove safe, convenient parking, for example along the wide section of road East of Aberlady, in order to force people to park where you can charge them. It is stupidity and naked greed combined, not the image your council wants, surely?

By all means, charge for the use of toilets....but NOT carparking.

It's discrimination. How many visitors to the county will be happy to pay to park their car in a muddy field having already wrecked the suspension driving up a single track road full of enormous potholes. Perhaps the owner of the road should charge a toll for cars to get to the council car park. A sure fired way to drive tourism to other counties which all have as much to offer as East Lothian.

Our visits tend to be for brief walks to blow the cobwebs away or to just get some fresh air. It would not be worth the money for such a quick walk. also, a lot of people tend to walk dogs which I'm sure would put them off too. There are other options to gain capital but these parking charges should not be considered.
