    One of the best beaches in Fife for hunting for Sea shells and Sea glass, which are often found on the beach thanks to the two local Glass factories that were located here 100 years ago. Back then, unwanted glass was dumped into the sea and still washes up on the beach here after having been polished by the sea and sand.
