Hiking
Once a popular destination for smugglers, the rocky cove of Heddon's Mouth is now an interesting place to visit. Designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest, the Heddon Valley is home to lots of wildlife, including otters and the rare high brown fritillary butterfly, so keep a look-out.

The River Heddon flows into the sea here, a romantic place! The beach consists of large stones, it is not suitable for swimming, but you can sit on the rocks and look at the sea. There is also a higher viewing point where you can also find benches.
