Brown s Bay - Northumberland & Northeast

Brown's Bay offers a straightforward shore dive, well-suited for training or a relaxed day out. We often find juvenile fish sheltering amongst the rocks closer to shore, and sometimes a curious seal might make an appearance. It's an easy entry and exit, making it a good spot for newer divers or those looking to test new gear without strong currents. Visibility can vary quite a bit, so check local conditions before you head out.
