Saturday 5th July 2025.
Let’s go North tour.
Today should have been a pleasant day weather wise but the strong winds took the edge off being comfortable, thankfully however it was behind us as we drove over the Forth Bridge so no, side on buffeting.
We are parked in an area designated for motorhomes and in return they ask for a voluntary donation of £5 to stay for the night. I think we can manage that.
Aberdour Silver Sands is a popular beach on the Fife Coast known for its fine sand and views of the Firth of Forth islands. It has a mix of beautiful beach and pleasant surrounding countryside, there is a modern cafe and toilet facilities adjacent to the beach. During the season there are life guards in attendance and it seems popular with sea kayakers. Considering it’s a Saturday in July there were less than 50 people on the beach.
The beach isn’t long and we happily walked along and back with Layla having a paddle and chasing pebbles.
On our walk we came across a Pied Blackbird, it was quite tame and happy to peck around by my feet.
Sadly by about 6pm the weather went quite cool with drizzle in the air, after our evening meal we went for a walk to the end of the peninsular where there is an old unused lighthouse.
Sadly I was unable to find any information about the lighthouse.
