Tour Scotland Winter 4K travel video of the tide coming in, and seagulls, by the coastal walking path on visit to the East Neuk of Fife. This is the area where I was raised in Scotland, I used to play on these rocks, which are locally called skerries or skellies, which are rocks which are covered as the tide comes in. The Fife Coastal Path runs from the Forth Estuary in the South, to the Tay Estuary in the North and stretches for 117 miles. Neuk is the Scots word for nook or corner, and the East Neuk is generally accepted to comprise the fishing villages of the most northerly part of the Firth of Forth and the land and villages slightly inland therefrom. In effect, this means that part to the south of a line drawn parallel to the coast from just north of Earlsferry to just north of Crail, approximately 39 square miles in area. As such it would include Elie and Earlsferry, Colinsburgh, St Monans, Pittenweem, Arncroach, Carnbee, Anstruther, Cellardyke, Kilrenny, Crail and Kingsbarns and the immediate hinterland, as far as the upland area known as the Riggin o Fife.
