North Berwick grew as a resort in the last half of the 1800s largely because of its two sandy bays, Berwick Bay and Milsey Bay. North Berwick is overshadowed by North Berwick Law, a 187m lump of volcanic rock located on the south side of the town and visible for many miles in every direction. At the summit you find a Napoleonic signal station and an arch made from a pair of whale's jaw bones, similar to the ones overlooking Whitby harbour on the North Yorkshire coast.
