Largo Bay is a bay on the northern shore of the Firth of Forth, on the coast of Fife, Scotland.[1][2]

Lower Largo is a village right on the bay, with small harbour.[1] Upper Largo is adjacent, just inland and above the bay and at the foot of Largo Law (an extinct volcano).[1] The Fife Coastal Path, which is a long distance footpath from Kincardine to Newburgh, runs along the side of the bay. There is also a racehorse named Largo Bay after the location, currently trained by Michael Madgwick and owned by Joe Lane.
