Silversands is one of the most popular and picturesque beaches on the Fife coast. Boasting a serene atmosphere, a beautiful setting, as well as calm, shallow and clean waters, it is a lovely place to spend some time.

Great award winning beach (for cleanliness) and a stones throw away from Aberdour Castle. The cafe located there serves some lovely home made dishes and cakes. A favourite for me and my wife.

Aberdour Silversands is one of the most popular and attractive beaches on the Fife coast. The beach offers the freshness and variety of the seaside as well as the peace and tranquillity of the countryside. The shore, in its charming setting, looks out to the islands of Inchmickery and Inchcolm, where there is a famous abbey.

Aberdour Silversands is a great place for a family day out, with a kids’ putting green and a bouncy castle in the summer. The Fife Coastal Path passes by this beach and the surrounding area is well worth walking. Lifeguards patrol the beach during the peak summer season.

Facilities available on the beach include a beachfront café, toilets, first aid, a dog restricted area and a dog exercise area.
