Pittenweem Harbour, St Monans and Pittenweem (By outRAGEis)

Really easy access to the harbour. Just park up at the Crazy Golf and it's free for 2 hours which is more than enough time to get down to the harbour. Follow the path down and within 5 minutes you're there ready to fly and the harbour and village are small so there's not too many tourists around either.
