Tayport is on the south side of the Tay, four miles from the centre of Dundee, twelve miles from St Andrews, and 12 miles from Cupar.
The campsite is on the coast close to the northern entrance of Tentsmuir forest. Tayport common is adjacent to the site which we share with the Larick Community and Sports Centre. From the north or from the south on the A92 turn off at the roundabout on the southern end of the Tay Bridge to the B946. From the south from St Andrews or Cupar take the B945 from St Michaels. The best approach for vans and caravans is down Maitland and Nelson Streets. Be sure to take the third exit at the roundabout at the end of Maitland Street. The second exit takes you to the Promenade and Tayport Links Caravan Park.
Nearby Attractions
The Fife Coastal Path goes right past the campsite, as does the the northern section of the Coast and Castles route and National Cycle Route 1.
Tentsmuir Forest contains many trails for walking, cycling and horse riding. The terrain is generally fairly level, and the coastal boundary comprises dunes and a large sandy beach, which stretches 4 miles from Tentsmuir Point to the mouth of the River Eden.
The main tracks are wide and with a surface of either gravel or sand and grass, and in the unlikely even of forestry operations are vehicle free. There are narrower cyclable tracks as well as narrow footpaths throughout the forest.
Interesting locations are the Ice House and the Polish Army Camp. The main centre for the forest is at Kinshaldy, which is the easiest access point for the beach. There is a large car park, childrens play area and cafe/creperie.
