About

Seahouses sits on the Northumberland coast with a working harbour where fishing boats and passenger launches berth. Stacks of orange lobster pots line the quayside and the rhythm of tides shapes the harbour day to day. Small fishmongers and cafes open onto the harbour front and the village functions around its role as a base for sea fisheries and coastal boat services.
