Little Carr is a rocky outcrop on the shore just south of Craster, along the coast path.
Why it's on our list: when the sea is up, the waves break spectacularly over the rocks, and it's a good spot to pause on a walk along the coast.
Worth knowing: keep well back from the edge in rough weather.
Little Carr is a prominent rocky outcrop and offshore skerry located just off the coast of Craster, a historic fishing village in Northumberland, England. Together with its larger counterpart, Muckle Carr (or Big Carr), it forms a natural barrier that provides critical protection to Craster Harbour from heavy North Sea swells.
