"Aberdour" Kirkcaldy Off The Beaten Path Tip by iaint

This village is a few miles west of Kirkcaldy, just along the coast.

I pass through it on the train every week (at least twice) when I go to Edinburgh. I can see it from the plane if it approaches Edinburgh Airport from the east (normal, as the prevailing wind is southwest).

But in the 13 years I've lived here, I've been in the village just a few times. I've missed out.

It has an award winning sandy beach. It has a cute harbour & boat club. It has a castle. Its has pubs & restaurants. I'm sure it has more, but that's enough to start with.

The castle charges £5 per adult for admission. You'll have to pay to park at the beach (not sure how much). The train service is frequent, and the station is in the centre of the village.
