St Mary’s Lighthouse in Northumberland stands proud on a tiny tidal island, connected to the mainland by a rugged causeway that disappears beneath the waves at high tide. This iconic beacon, with its striking white tower, offers panoramic views over the North Sea and the surrounding rocky coastline, a playground for dramatic seascape photography. It’s a haven for birdwatchers and adventurers alike, while the lighthouse’s quirky little museum shares tales of maritime history and local legends. Perfect for capturing sweeping skies and crashing waves… and maybe the occasional photobombing dog!
