Dramatic views, sandy beaches and iconic castles - the essence of Northumberland's Coast. The AONB is home to grey seals, dune flowers, and thousands of puffin, waders, geese and ducks. This striking landscape is steeped in history, covering 7,000 years of human activity. Prominent castles, fortifications and Christian heritage added to Bronze and Iron Age settlements, picturesque fishing villages and 20th century military defences. All in that glorious light. A place of fun, recreation, solace and inspiration.
