Each of these topics covers several projects and is focussed on how the SeaScapes partners delivered these aspects.

The resources page is a repository for many of the reports and documents created during the project. This includes video, photos, PDF reports and 3D models.

Below are some of our key digital outputs and how you can find them.

In addition to the content in this website, there are digital assets which are located in other locations:

Free Coastal App

Download the free SeaScapes Coastal App from your favourite apps store and learn more about the Tyne to Tees Coast. Once the app is loaded on your phone, the app will ping the phone at key locations along the coast. At each location, the initial screen will tell you about the place and its point of interest, from which you can do a deeper dive into the information. Locations of wrecks off the coast will also enable you to find out more about the hidden heritage beneath the waves.

Reading the Rocks

Our Reading the Rocks website takes you on self-guided geology walks along three Durham coast beaches. Through video, maps and photos you can learn about the geology before you head to the beach and then can find the geological features on the beaches.
