Northumbria Scuba Divers

If you don't fancy lugging your kit across the causeway and scrambling over the slippery rocks, why not enjoy St Mary's from a different perspective? This dive site is perfect for beginners with a nice easy beach entry. It's a very shallow site which slopes gently to a max depth of about 6m. But just because it's shallow doesn't mean it's not teeming with life! You'll see all types of crustaceans and juvenile fish. We've even seen monkfish right in the shallows! Plus, if you're really lucky a cheeky grey seal from the island might come to visit!

Want to see Grey Seals?! This is your best chance - there's over 4 thousand of them! There are lots of dive sites around The Farnes, which ones we visit depends on the conditions for the day, but there's something here for everyone.

The Farne Islands are famous for a colony of 4.5 thousand grey seals and teeming with life on the many varied dive sites. Most of the sites are around the outer Farnes with wrecks and reefs to explore.

Ellerton Park is a fresh water, spring fed 60 acre lake ,they are open 7 days a week 9.00am to 5.00pm. Late night Tuesdays and Thursdays until 7.30pm. Please note last entry to the water is 1 hour before closing. scuba diving entry £10.

Several boat operators sail out of Eyemouth Harbour for trips in the local area and up to St Abbs. We love diving in the marine park, it's so beautiful. If you need a coral fix, this is the place to be! Soft coral and dead mans fingers adorn the reefs as well as anemones and deeper down, blankets of brittle star fish. If you're really lucky you might see the elusive wolf fish.

We love Greenends gully! It's easiest dived on a high tide and access can be a little bit tricky to the water's edge. But once you're in and drop down to explore the channels it's well worth it! The max depth here is about 13m and so much life lives in the nooks and crannies. You'll see lobsters, crabs, nudis and if you're really eagle eyed - scorpionfish and octopus! This is one of The Fifth Point's adopted Project AWARE sites.
