Crail

The most picturesque fishing village on the East Neuk, with a tiny stone harbour and red-roofed white houses stacked up the hillside. It is one of Scotland's most photographed harbours.

Crail sits at the easternmost tip of the East Neuk, about 16 km from St Andrews. Its harbour is very small, and the stone houses are built up the slope. In summer, huts beside the harbour sell freshly cooked lobster and crab. The old town has a 17th-century Tolbooth (town hall) and an old church. You can walk the coastal path to Anstruther, about 6 km away. Bus 95 serves the village.
