St Abbs is home to a number of dive sites, including the famous St Abbs Marine Reserve, which is one of the best diving locations in the UK. It was once a busy port, exporting fish and wool to Europe and beyond. More recently it was used by the Marvel Studios as the location for creating New Asgard for the MCU. It is very proud of that link and lists itself as Twinned.
