Located just over the border in the land of the haggis, the bagpipe and the tartan skirts ( about 7 miles in), St Abbs is a small harbour but with a big underwater nature reserve (which incidentally was opened by David Bellamy). There are a number of boat operators sailing from there but it is also an excellent location for shore diving. We arrived on saturday afternoon to find that the ...

Capernwray is probably only ...
