A glorious cliff top walk along the coastal path at St Abbs Head. Great in any weather but spectacular on a sunny day. Please take care by keeping back from the cliff edge and always follow the Scottish Outdoor Access Code.

Some of the clearest water for diving in the UK

St Abbs Head Nature Reserve has 200 acres of rugged coastline with truly spectacular views. There is a car park, visitor centre, cafe and local craft shop on site leading to a walk around the cliffs with amazing sea views, a multitude of seabirds and many seals often seen lying on the beaches with fluffy white pups.

Take a walk along to the lighthouse and see how many different species of bird you can see - If you're lucky you might even spot some dolphins! This area of the coast is also a Marine reserve with unusually clear waters for spectacular diving.

Lovely walks (or a run if you are feeling fit) from the car park, up to the lighthouse then on to St Abbs.
