The Ship Inn has stood on the harbour front at Elie for generations, and is famous for the beach cricket its team plays out on the sands when the tide’s out. Inside and on the terrace you can eat seafood looking straight over the bay — a cracking spot on a warm day. Leven station is about 11km west.
