Highlights
This is the only time of the month you can walk out onto parts of the Fife shore that are usually underwater. On the Rocks runs only on the big spring tides of the full and new moon. With your helmet on, you forage the deepest pools with Jayson, a seaweed specialist with longstanding professional experience who has been called a world expert. Then you eat what you gathered: a five-course tasting menu cooked over open fire on the beach. It's a genuine sea-to-fork day, rated 5.0 from 34 reviews on Tripadvisor.
