Pittenweem is the premier fishing village in the East Neuk of Fife and home to KINGDOM SEAFOOD and the Fishermen's Mutual Association. The harbour, fishmarket and winding lanes of the village are a favourite with locals and holidaymakers alike, who visit to watch the boats unload their catch and to soak up the unique, relaxed and friendly atmosphere of this unique fishing community.
