At this time of year the Eden Estuary becomes a tourist destination and a filling..
FCCT offer a range of events, activities, conservation activities, guided walks and family friendly events to encourage the younger generation to develop a love of the environment.
This section includes an extensive range of downloadable resources, including themed walks
and information leaflets, which are sure to enhance any visit to Fife.
A huge thank you to @abbeyfordleisure guests who have donated an incredible £867 to us from their 2025 season. In a partnership that goes back nearly 10 years, the business and its customers have donated over £5,200 to FCCT for path maintenance and development. That`s an example of our mission `Connecting Environment and People` in action!
It was a beautiful day on the Fife Coastal Path when Michael and Carol from our team went to thank Hannah Gordon (centre) from Abbeyford Leisure.

Huge appreciation to our incredible conservation volunteers, who spent a day building a brand new otter holt at one of our reserves! An otter holt is a specially created underground shelter designed to mimic the natural burrows otters use in the wild. This one includes a separate sleeping chamber, a dedicated latrine area, and two entrances so otters can come and go safely and quietly.
Holts like these give otters secure spaces to rest, shelter from bad weather, and raise their young. To make it even better, the holt was built using wood taken from beaver felled trees - perfectly natural, locally sourced timber!
We’re continually inspired by the passion, energy and teamwork that our volunteers bring to each project. This holt is another brilliant example of how people power makes a real difference for local wildlife.
👏 A massive thank you to everyone involved!

Bonfires and dog control...two topics that get people hot under the collar when they`re enjoying the outdoors. So if you have questions and points of view please seek out Catherine and Jack from our Access Team this Monday. Look for the Fife Coast and Countryside Trust branding close to Cellardyke tidal pool from 10am. They`ll be there to answer any queries about responsible access to our countryside, paths and beaches. Catherine and Jack love meeting the public, so why not just stop by for a general chat!

EDIT: Temporary public toilets will open at Aberdour Silver Sands tomorrow (Saturday), while refurbishment continues on the main toilet block. The interim facilities are located behind the café and include an accessible toilet.
The main toilet block is undergoing renovation and will include a Changing Places toilet which is a larger, specially-equipped accessible toilet that can accommodate a disabled person and their carers.
Thank you for your patience while improvements are being made to ensure Aberdour Silver Sands is an inclusive, well-managed and sustainable destination.
