Dysart Harbour is very picturesque and bustling with life. The harbour was built in 1450 but became a prominent place for exporting salt and coal in the 16th and 17th centuries. Any fans of TV show Outlander might recognise the harbour as it was used as a filming location. There are plenty of places to eat and drink in Drystart, too.

The first port has been said to date as far back as 1450. This helped the export of coal and salt with the town's trading partner, the Low Countries.
