Tentsmuir Sands

This superb beach stretches north for 5 miles from the mouth of the River Eden to the Tay estuary. Signposted off the A92, the beach is reached by a road through Tentsmuir Forest ending at a large informal car park with a good information centre, picnic area and a small play park. From here paths lead out across low dunes to the beach where you can find a surprising number of seashells. At the northern end you will have a good chance of spotting both grey and common seals hauled out on the sand banks.The car park costs £2 per vehicle, payable at the automatic barrier. You’ll need to have the correct change.Public Toilets.
