St. Andrews is one of our favourite seaside towns with lots of lovely shops, cafes and restaurants. The West Sands is a beautiful sandy beach where you can take a long walk enjoying views over the town and historic golf courses. The ruins of St. Andrews Castle and the nearby buildings of St. Andrews University are well worth a visit. We can recommend the local fish and chips after all the sea air!
