Hi, not sure it's correct to tag the whole of the bay at Burntisland as a beach. I was planning on tagging it as a tidalflat/mud but hadn't got round to it. :)

Not clear to me - though if I go there to visit, i see a huge beach - great for kite flying etc. Beach is usually tagged down to the spring low water mark.

Well that depends on the time of day you go there - it's only a full "beach" for at most half a day. :)
It's the bit down from the caravan park which is last to fill with water that the sand is dry, the rest of it wet and not what you'd call a beach - more like mud/tidalfat IMO.
The beach I mapped at Burntisland was the actual sandy bit, where it slopes down to meet rocks and wet sand. Some of that will be covered at high tide but it's better than mapping the whole bay as beach - need something to differentiate between the sand and mud.
Can't see anything on the wiki about mapping the beach to the low tide? Also if you look at the very similar Crammond Island it's not a huge beach: http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/361458
