3. Coastal Safety & Informational Disclaimer

The field guides, tide notes, geological observations, and walking trails provided on this site are published purely for general editorial and inspirational guidance. Coastal environments in Northumberland present natural hazards including rapidly rising tides, tidal cut-offs, unstable cliff edges, cold water shock, and slippery intertidal rocks.

Visitors are personally responsible for verifying current official Admiralty Tide Tables, weather forecasts from the UK Met Office, and local safety warnings from HM Coastguard before embarking on any coastal walk. We do not guarantee continuous accuracy of trail conditions, which are subject to seasonal erosion and landowner closures.

• Inaccuracies, omissions, or outdated operational schedules for third-party facilities or transit links.
• Any temporary interruption or unavailability of this website.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury arising from our gross negligence or fraudulent misrepresentation.

5. External Links

Our guides may contain hyperlinks to external websites operated by third parties (such as national parks, weather agencies, or local heritage trusts). These links are provided for convenience only; we exercise no editorial control over third-party domains and accept no responsibility for their content, reliability, or privacy practices.

6. Termination of Access

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to suspend or terminate access to any user who violates these terms or engages in conduct harmful to our digital infrastructure or intellectual property.
