St Andrews

St Andrews lies along Scotland’s North Sea coast, where broad sands and low rocky headlands border St Andrews Bay. This small Fife town is internationally associated with golf: the Old Course is among the world’s oldest courses, and its Swilcan Bridge has become one of the sport’s enduring symbols. Founded in 1413, the University of St Andrews gives the streets a lively academic presence during term time. The ruins of St Andrews Cathedral and the nearby castle recall the town’s medieval role as an important ecclesiastical centre in Scotland. Beaches such as West Sands extend north of the centre, while the Fife Coastal Path follows the shore.
