Fife · open water conditions information
St Andrews West Sands is a coastal location in Fife, one of 30 Fife spots covered by NippyIndex.
The shore faces broadly east, so it is most open to wind and swell arriving from the east.
As a tidal location, its tide predictions are referenced to the nearest tidal station, Dundee.
NippyIndex draws on published marine and weather data (sea state, wave information and water temperature) and UKHO tidal predictions.
