Groudle Glen - Northumberland & Northeast

Groudle Glen offers a shore dive, often used for training, especially open water courses. Expect a gradual slope, mostly sand and shingle, with some kelp patches closer to the rocks. While not a busy site for big pelagics, you’ll likely spot crabs, blennies, and possibly a lobster or two in the crevices. It’s a good spot for building confidence in calm conditions, or for a relaxed poke around.
