Nestends Gully is a unique dive site offering two distinct areas to explore. The site’s maximum depth reaches approximately 14 meters. At high tide, divers can enter through a channel that opens onto a pebbly seabed and then continue exploring the gully walls and channels. Turn left at any point to delve deeper into the gullies. This area is home to a diverse array of marine life including lobsters, crabs, nudis, and wrasse – you might even encounter a resident grey seal from Eyemouth harbour! Nestends Gully has been adopted as one of The Fifth Point’s Project AWARE sites, showcasing its importance for conservation.
