With lots to keep the whole family busy, it's no wonder that Elie has been a popular holiday destination for hundreds of years. The picturesque village has a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Take time to meander through the village and visit some of the shops (including a greengrocer, delicatessen, chemist and gift shops) then relax with a refreshment in one of the friendly coffee shops or bars.
The village boasts 4 glorious sandy beaches and also an intriguing volcanic beach where families can be seen sifting the sand in the hunt for the famous ‘Elie Rubies'. Proud to have been awarded the coveted Blue Flag award, the harbour beach is the busiest area where you can enjoy canoeing, sailing, pedalo, sand inflatable water rides which are all available at the Water Sports Centre that nestles in the dunes.
For the energetic visitor, Elie Sports Club offers a number of activities including tennis, putting bowls, driving range and a 9 hole golf course. The Elie links golf course stretches over 6273 yards and dates back to the 16th century. Today it is a fabulous Championship golf course.
A short walk to West Bay on the shores of the golf course, you will find the ‘Chain Walk', a series of chains that are secured to the cliffs allowing adventurous walkers to discover remote caves and rock pools. Avoid getting your feet wet by making sure that you do the walk at low tide. For the less adventurous, the coastal path stretches in both directions and has some stunning walks with breathtaking views.
The ‘Lady's Tower' that rests above the rocks at Elie Ness was designed and built for Lady Anstruther who resided in the village and was used for her to change before going for her daily swim in the waters below, it is said that a bell ringer would ring his bell in order to alert the locals to stay away whilst the lady was bathing. Today it retains much of its charm, the fireplace and chimney are still visible and the commanding views form the windows take in Elie Lighthouse to the west and St Monans to the east.
