Ukuhamba-hamba
You can walk everywhere in St Andrews
There are 3 main streets - South Street, Market Street & North Street. Plus The Scores which runs parallel to the sea.
They are connected via lots of little lanes - some no more than passages. Have a wander around - you'll see the real, old St Andrews.
Ungaphoswa
Walk around and discover the beaches & historic sites
There are 2 main beaches - East Sands which is quite small and next to the pier and harbour; and West Sands which is huge - several miles long and famously featured in the film, Chariot of Fire.
Historic sites are to be seen everywhere - the cathedral, the castle, the pier and harbour, the ancient university buildings....
Bhukisha ngaphambi kokuba uhambe
Always Book - and as early as possible!
St Andrews is popular, and small so it's always busy....
Whether it's mid winter or the height of summer you'll always need to book a restaurant in advance!
Izinto omele uzipakishe
Bring comfortable shoes
Cobbles and stilettos don't go together. You'll be discovering St Andrews on foot so bring suitable shoes and check the weather forecast - you'll maybe need an extra jumper or raincoat. The wind can be quite fearsome!
