Scottish Fisheries Museum
A fisheries museum beside the harbour in Anstruther, with restored historic boats and displays of fishing life that tell the story of the East Neuk's fishing port.
The museum occupies a complex of 16th-century buildings that have been converted for its use. Its displays include boat models, fishing gear, the history of whaling and the homes of fishermen. In the courtyard, restored traditional fishing boats are on display, and visitors can climb aboard. Admission is about £10. The exhibits are detailed, making it a good choice for rainy days, and it pairs well with fish and chips at the harbour.
