Harbours and piers

We are responsible for 11 of the many harbours and piers along Fife's coastline:

These are predominantly leisure use, with Pittenweem almost exclusively a commercial harbour. The harbours and piers are governed by various pieces of Marine related legislation and the current Harbour Bylaws.

For information on fees, navigation, berthing, registering your craft or any other enquiries relating to facilities please contact the Harbourmaster at the relevant harbour/pier.

Using our harbours

Throughout the year, there are various festivals held in our harbours. We also have short term and season pitches available on a first come, first served basis.

To apply for use of a harbour area for festivals, season pitches or similar uses, complete the event application form. This application should be completed fully and returned to us a minimum of 6 weeks prior to the event. This ensures adequate time to prepare legal agreements. We'll also do a full check of relevant insurances and other required documentation.

For information about grant options available, see Community support contacts under Funding and Monitoring Team who will be able to advise.

Paying for a harbour berth

You need to pay to keep your vessel at our harbours. Use our Pay for a Harbour Berth online form.
