A Day Trip To ABERDOUR - Is It One of Scotland's BEST TOWNS? - Scotland Walking Tour | 4K | 60FPS

Aberdour is a scenic and historic village on the south coast of Fife, Scotland. It is easily accessible by train from Edinburgh and could be considered one of Scotland's hidden gems. This beautiful village is home to Aberdour Castle (a filming location for the television show Outlander), as well as two beaches - Black Sands and Silver Sands, both of which are picturesque and offer incredible views over to the Edinburgh skyline. It is on the north shore of the Firth of Forth, looking south to the island of Inchcolm and its Abbey, and to Leith and Edinburgh beyond. According to the 2011 census, the village has a population of 1,633. The village's winding High Street lies a little inland from the coast. Narrow lanes run off it, providing access to the more hidden parts of the village and the shoreline itself. The village nestles between the bigger coastal towns of Burntisland to the east and Dalgety Bay to the west, and is close to the historic city of Dunfermline. In 2014 Aberdour was voted Best Coastal Village in Fife and Best Small Coastal Village in Scotland. It also received a Gold Award in Beautiful Fife and Beautiful Scotland. In 2018 Aberdour was voted the second-best place to live in Scotland by The Sunday Times list of Best Places to Live. Aberdour is home to Fife's only senior shinty club. Aberdour Shinty Club field teams in both the men's and women's senior national leagues. Join this channel to buy me a coffee and support my work:    / @virtualscotland
