Kingsbarns Beach

Admirers of big skies and wide open spaces will enjoy Kingsbarns Beach, which can be found about 8miles down the coast from St Andrews. The 2-mile stretch of golden sands with interesting rocky outcrops is the perfect destination for those seeking solitude and stunning scenery. The beach is backed by low, grassy dunes and one of Scotland’s finest golf courses. The dunes provide a habitat to a variety of insects and birds with the Fife Coastal Path passing alongside the beach. Dog owners are encouraged to keep their dogs under control in line with the Scottish Outdoor Access Code.
