There is a great deal of speculation surrounding this site's nickname, "Knacker Hole," but it's likely a variation of "Kraken," a sea monster rumoured to live here. Located in one of the small bays in Beadnell (Northumberland), Knacker Hole is a fantastic shallow dive with easy entry and exit.
Expect to find hermit crabs, schooling fish, scorpion fish, lobster and dog fish. The rocky outcroppings are also a great place to find small stuff.
The best time to dive here is between May and October when water temperatures are between 13-17°C/55-63°F. Winter water temperatures drop to around 4-8°C/39-46°F.
Visibility at Knacker hole can be up to 10 metres/30 feet. The maximum depth is about 13 metres/42 feet depending on tides.
