Lossiemouth’s West Beach was cordoned off at the weekend following the discovery of a torpedo believed to be from the Second World War.
Royal Navy bomb disposal experts were sent from Faslane to deal with the device.
Despite an extensive search, the bomb squad was unable to trace the device.
Police have confirmed the beach is now considered to be safe.
Lossiemouth fisherman, Derek Main, told STV News: “I was walking on the West Beach in Lossiemouth on Sunday at about 1pm when I saw a area cordoned off with police tape and being guarded by a police officer.”
