Taxi bookings from Dalgety Bay

Dalgety Bay is a coastal town in Fife, on the north shore of the Firth of Forth and south of Dunfermline. It is spread over several bays and takes in Hillend in the north-west, so a full street address helps more here than the town name alone.

Book a taxi in Dalgety Bay in the Dunfermline Taxi App for journeys into Dunfermline, including Queen Margaret Hospital, or to and from Edinburgh Airport. You can start from the station, from Hillend or from any other address in town: you choose the pickup and the time.

How to book a taxi in Dalgety Bay

  1. Enter your Dalgety Bay pickup

    From the home screen, tap Book a taxi to travel now or Schedule for later to plan ahead. Type the address you are leaving from and pick it from the suggestions, whether that is a street in Hillend or the station on Main Street.

Pickup tips for Dalgety Bay

Planning around a train

Dalgety Bay station can be your pickup or your destination. For an early start, book the day before: the first scheduled slot is 07:00, with slots every 30 minutes after that. Check your train with ScotRail or National Rail first, then choose a slot that leaves you time to spare.

For Dalgety Bay Sailing Club, enter The Wynd, Dalgety Bay, KY11 9SJ. Already at the pickup spot? Tap Use my current location to attach your position; that is optional.
