Nestled between Whitley Bay and Cullercoats lies Brown's Bay, a charming cove framed by the dramatic Table Rocks to the north and Brown's Point to the south. Protected by a sturdy sea wall that doubles as a promenade, the bay offers a small beach that reveals itself with the changing tide. But Brown's Bay holds more than scenic beauty. Below the water's surface lies a treasure trove for scuba divers - three shipwrecks! The cargo vessel "Warkworth Castle" met its unfortunate end at Brown's Point in 1876. The "SS Butetown," a coal carrier, succumbed to a storm in 1917. And finally, the Greek steamship "Zephyros" ran aground in 1947, adding its story to the rich history beneath the waves.
