Visited this harbour back in September and it's another one of those picturesque harbour along the Fife Coastal Trail. This one has plenty of cafes and restaurants, and a well break from all the walking on the trail. It was low tide when we arrived, it it wasn't as pretty without any boats.

It's a very nice place a nice walk along the harbour.
Lovely picturesque harbour in the East Neuk of Five with Brest selection of cafes and restaurants looking onto the harbour. Always worth trying one of the fish and chip restaurants along the front for an incredible meal with fresh north sea fish. Only downside I would say that it can get very busy at times.
Founded as a fishing village, a way of life long since disappeared by the latter 20th century, the Royal Burgh of Anstruther was created in 1587. The very name Anstruther derives from Scottish Gaelic. The second element being sruthair ('burn, stream'), but the first element is less certain, possibly Gaelic á(i)n ('driving') or aon ('one'), thus meaning either 'driving current or burn' or '(place of or on) one burn'. Anstruther's association with the fishing industry has not been forgotten however and the town is home to the Scottish Fisheries Museum although its main industry is now tourism. Regular boat trips leave Anstruther harbour for the Isle of May, one of the best places in Scotland for viewing seabirds.
Really splendid views from the harbour towards the sea. The harbour itself is very beautiful with many ships parked. You can walk around the port and enjoy the views or take a boat tour to the Isle of May. We came here for a day and took a walk from here to Elie, which I would really recommend doing. It took us 3-4h to walk by the water with incredible views. We stopped quite a few times to enjoy views and eat. Just make sure to catch the last bus!
