Things to do in Amble & Warkworth 

The seaside town of Amble, known locally as the ‘friendliest’ port in England, clings to the River Coquet estuary in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This popular seaside town with its authentic fishing harbour and marina now has a new Harbour Village, a collection of wooden pods which sell everything from food and drink to arts and crafts. There are some great fish and chip shops too!  

Amble is a great place for a family seaside holiday or for a get together with friends with plenty of activities, wildlife, coastline and countryside to explore. There’s even an annual Puffin Festival in June with plenty of fun for all. The inspiration for the festival came from the 20,000 puffins that nest on Coquet Island just a mile off the coast of Amble. You can take one of the regular boat trips which run around the island, this RSPB seabird sanctuary is also home to an impressive 80ft high castellated lighthouse which dates back to 1841. The island has been an RSPB nature reserve since 1970 and is now home to the only nesting colony of roseate terns in the United Kingdom. Coquet Island is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest and protected so that the nesting birds are not disturbed. Therefore, no visitors are permitted to disembark on the island. 

Surfers will love Amble Beach, it’s a great place to catch a wave! To the South of Amble lies Druridge Bay, a fabulous seven mile stretch of sand teeming with wildlife. The beach runs between Amble and Cresswell and is perfect for cycling, walking and surfing. Druridge Bay Country Park is centered on Ladyburn Lake where you can swim and try various watersports, there’s also a lovely children’s play area. 

Across the river lies Warkworth Island. Almost entirely surrounded by a loop of the River Coquet, Warkworth Island is a great place to try our water sports such as paddle boarding or to enjoy a peaceful riverside walk. Warkworth beach is around one mile away from the centre of the village and is a golden sandy beach perfect for sunbathing, paddling, playing games with the family, and relaxing whilst taking in the view of Warkworth castle (just one of many in Northumberland). Parking is free at Warkworth beach too - so there’s no reason not to visit!
