ST MONANS
St Monan’s Zigzag Pier
Question: "Can you tell me where in East Scotland you can find the famous pier with a zigzag design?"
St Monans, a charming harbour village in the East Neuk of Fife, is where you'll find that iconic zigzag pier! It's just a short drive from St Andrews, making it an ideal day trip.
Forget boring breakwaters! This 18th-century pier playfully zigs and zags across the waves, protecting the harbour while adding a unique touch to the seascape. 🌊
Head to the east pier and climb the ladder at the end for the best view.
⚠️ Be careful, it can be slippery and windy up there!
Once you're safely perched, marvel at the pier's quirky design and capture some stunning photos.
📸 Don't forget to turn around and admire the picturesque village itself, with its traditional "East Neuk vernacular" houses and maritime details. ⚓️
