Percent Map travel guide (2026-09-09): Coastal Charm: A Hidden Corner of Scotland

Pittenweem, nestled on the east coast of Fife, is a fishing village that exudes charm and history. Fishermen still bring in their daily catch to sell at the bustling quayside market, while visitors can enjoy fresh seafood at local eateries like Dory Bistro or Chip Ahoy. The town’s Victorian swimming pool, which reopens to great local pride after restoration efforts, now offers a unique tidal bathing experience near the beach. As September rolls in with temperatures hovering around 13°C, consider visiting during the annual arts festival in early August for both cultural enrichment and picturesque scenery.
