Appearances can be deceptive

The museum is situated in the renowned Anstruther Harbour, a short distance away from the famous chippy. It tells the story of the Scottish fishing industry, its boats, harbours and communities. It is quite deceptive from the outside as it doesn’t look very big but it has an amazing number of galleries spread over several old buildings. Given the age of the buildings, they have done an amazing job on accessibility, with further improvements in the pipeline. Well worth a visit - and carers and accompanied children are free.
