Been a few times when I lived in Newcastle. Can be very good if the sea has not either piled loads of pebbles against the start of the problems, or washed all the pebbles away leaving you with highball problems you can't reach the first holds on! Potential problems include being pooed on by sea birds! Nice though, if you're in the area...

It seems that a list of previous Cove attendees would read like a "whos who" of british climbing: Percy, Me........i could go on (no i couldn't).

Pah! I went there in the 80's with the betaclimbingdesigns Berry boys....along with Jason Myers and Dave Pegg.  Of course, Jason had done everything there years ago  :roll:
