Tayport

Tayport lies on the north shore of the Firth of Tay in northeast Scotland, and its position facing Broughty Ferry helped establish it as a ferry port long before road links dominated the estuary. Formerly known as Ferry-Port-on-Craig, the town recalls centuries of crossings over the broad tidal waters that lead east to the North Sea. Dundee stands across the firth, while the Tay narrows toward its upper reaches to the west. Tayport is also the northern terminus of the Fife Coastal Path. Just east of town, Tentsmuir National Nature Reserve includes beach, dunes and Scots pine woodland.
