Boat Diving at St Abbs
Although the shore diving is some of the best in the UK, there are many other excellent sites that can only be reached by boat.
These range from the very sheltered but stunningly colourful surge gullies that run deep into St. Abbs Head on the NW side of the lighthouse to a variety of scenic drift dives. Typical of these is Anemone Gully (deservedly the most popular boat dive in the area) and the Black Carrs, just minutes across the bay from St. Abbs harbour.
Although these sites can be busy on some weekends, there are others just as good which hardly get dived at all. One such dive is known as The Horn, a spectacular and extensive steep sided ridge of rock about 400m directly out to sea from the harbour. And don't overlook the fact that there is more excellent diving off Fast Castle Head to the north west and Burnmouth to the south, all of which are easily accessed from St. Abbs or Eyemouth.
