- Lower Largo,
Birthplace of Alexander Selkirk also known as Alexander Selcraig, was a Scottish sailor who spent four years as a castaway after being marooned on an uninhabited island in the South Pacific Ocean. His story aroused great interest at home, and Daniel Defoe’s fictional character Robinson Crusoe was based in part on him. - Pittenweem:
A small and secluded and picturesque fishing village famous for its yearly arts festival - Anstruther:
Was originally founded as a fishing village and is home to the Scottish Fisheries Museum. Its main industry is now tourism. You can enjoy the finest local fish and chips here
Because these villages are so unspoiled, and have been almost bypassed by the 20th century, it will almost feel like you have taken a trip back in time.
