If you are looking for a scenic and sandy beach in Fife, you might want to visit Ruby Bay in Elie. This sheltered bay is home to diverse wildlife, such as rock pool creatures, shore birds and cowslips. You can also find Elie rubies, which are red garnets embedded in the volcanic rock. Ruby Bay is part of the Fife Coastal Path, which offers beautiful walks along the coastline. Ruby Bay has won several awards for its cleanliness and facilities, such as toilets, parking and picnic areas.
