About

This part of the Fife Coastal Path begins in an urban, sometimes industrial, area but soon takes walkers to the golden sand of Leven Bay, the charming harbour at Lower Largo and a wildlife reserve famed for its butterflies, birds and wildflowers.

After following the water’s edge along Shell Bay’s beautiful beach, the footpath climbs to the top of the dramatic cliffs at Kincraig Point before crossing the local golf course - listen out for shouts of ‘Fore’! This stretch of the Fife Coastal Path comes to an end in the charming seaside villages of Earlsferry and Elie, where there’s a good choice of places to eat and drink.
