Giant millipede tracks, tree trunks in life position and many other fossils can be found to the South West of the pretty fishing village of Crail.

The volcanic rocks at Kinghorn are carboniferous sedimentary with Pyroclastic rocks and basalt flows intebedded. Within these rocks, corals and shells can be found.

There is plenty to see at St Monans, including raised beaches, an excellent example of a syncline, bedding planes packed with trace fossils, and whole layers of rock full of fossil corals and crinoids.

Some excellent Carboniferous plant fossils can be found at Anstruther if you can find the right type of rock and if you have the strength and determination to break them open and carry them off the beach.

There are two locations for fossils at Elie, the first is Elie Shore where during scouring conditions and winter months Brachiopods, Bivalves, Sponges and Trilobite fragments can be found. Nearby Wood Haven rocks also contain fossils.

Another location along this stretch of coastline where Carboniferous plant fossils can be found. The site is not as rich as others but is worth a visit none-the-less.
