Firth of Tay, Firth in eastern Scotland.

The Firth of Tay extends 37 kilometers along Scotland's eastern coast, reaching a maximum width of 4.8 kilometers near Invergowrie point.

The maritime trade through the Firth of Tay intensified during the Industrial Revolution when ships transported goods between Scottish ports and international destinations.

Coastal towns along the Firth preserve traditional fishing practices, with salmon fishing rights maintaining economic importance for local communities.

Visitors can access multiple viewing points through designated coastal paths connecting Dundee, Newport, and Tayport, with regular bus services between locations.

The Tay Rail Bridge spans the entire width of the Firth, connecting Dundee and Wormit while providing train passengers with water views.
