This small working fishing port is home to a close-knit but friendly community. The development of an award-winning marina on the site of the former staithes has brought new life to Amble. It also has good shops, pubs, is host to a Saturday car boot sale, and boasts a bustling Sunday market. You could make the most of this small thriving fishing port by staying in a nearby Bed and Breakfast.

You can also eat award-winning fish and chips or embark on a birdwatching boat trip to Coquet Island - home to a variety of birds including Puffins, Roseate Terns and a large colony of seals.

In the town square be sure to check the time on the Amble Sundial, which has the largest gnomon (indicator) in Europe.
