About this site
Black Cars is a shore dive site within the St Abbs and Eyemouth Voluntary Marine Reserve, on the rocky North Sea coastline of the Scottish Borders. The reserve is known for its cold, nutrient-rich water and varied rocky reef topography, with gullies, boulders and kelp typical of this stretch of coast near St Abbs harbour.
