People travelling to Leven by train in a fortnight can enjoy free fun at the town’s swimming pool and sports centre.
An energising beach bootcamp and a soothing beach yoga session are among the activities on offer as part of the Levenmouth rail link celebrations.
And youngsters can enjoy free flumes and waves or come-and-try sessions on June 2 and 3.
The swimming pool and sports centre is just feet away from the new Leven railway station, which opens to the public on Sunday June 2.
And staff are keen to show people arriving by rail what’s on offer.
The activities are in addition to a host of community celebrations already announced, including a world record-breaking dook attempt and a day of music and entertainment.
Be aware, some of the sports centre activities are only free for people with a train ticket to or from Levenmouth on June 2 or 3.
But here’s what’s on offer.

New car park for station and sports centre
Grant Stevenson, area manager for Fife Sports and Leisure Trust, says: “We are excited to celebrate this significant milestone.
“The opening of the rail link allows us to enhance access to our venue and connect with more members of the local community, raising awareness of the importance of physical activity, health and wellbeing.”
However, for those arriving by car, a new car park is being developed.
It will be a larger version of the previous car park that served the sports centre.
However, the new one will serve both the swimming pool and the railway station.
It will be free and will accommodate 134 vehicles, including accessible parking.
There will also be electric charging points.
