Philippa Malbon got in touch to let us know about the Herring Queen festival. Held every July, this community event culminates with a parade led by the pipe band.

Blow out the cobwebs by taking a bracing walk along the shoreline or simply grab one of the benches on the promenade and gaze out to sea.

If you’re looking for a family day out, take the road up to St Abbs, home of the National Nature Reserve, where you can watch seabirds including puffins.

How much of the Berwickshire Coastal Path have you explored? It stretches all the way from Berwick to St Abbs offering some stunning cliff top views.

If local history is your thing, try following the Town Trail Guide, available from the Tourist Information, which gives a fascinating insight into community history.

From fishing to farming and milling, the trades of the town and their impact on the social life of the town are explored at the Eyemouth Museum.
