About this site
The Farne Islands lie off the Northumberland coast of northeast England, a group of small islands and skerries in the North Sea best reached by boat from Seahouses. Dive sites around the islands reach a maximum depth of around 35 metres, and the diving here is rated advanced. The area is well known for its resident grey seal colony, which divers regularly encounter around the rocks and gullies.
