About Elie

  • The Elie Chain Walk is a coastal scramble along the rocky shoreline west of the village, using a series of fixed chains bolted into the rock face to help walkers navigate the most difficult sections. The route takes around two hours and requires a head for heights, but rewards walkers with spectacular views across the Forth. It is one of the most unusual and exhilarating walks in Scotland.
  • Elie beach cricket is a long-standing summer tradition in the village, with informal matches played on the sands when the tide is out. The Ship Inn, which overlooks the beach, organises regular cricket matches and the tradition has been featured in national newspapers and television programmes.
  • Ruby Bay, to the east of Elie, takes its name from the garnets that can occasionally be found in the sand and rock pools. The garnets are washed out of the local sandstone by wave action and can be found as small red stones among the pebbles on the beach.
  • Elie was a popular seaside resort for Edinburgh families in the Victorian and Edwardian eras, when the railway made it accessible for day trips and holidays. The elegant Georgian and Victorian villas that line the seafront were built for wealthy Edinburgh merchants and professionals who came to Elie for the summer.
