Seacliff comprises a beach, an estate and a harbour. It lies 4 miles east of North Berwick. The beach and estate were used as a staging post for various raids on nearby Tantallon Castle from the 14th to the 17th century. Troops were also stationed here to prevent landings by the French during the Napoleonic Wars in 1798.

On the east side of the beach a rocky outcrop known as St Baldred's Boat, protrudes into the sea. At its tip a conical stone pillar, topped by a cross can be seen rising from the water. The cross commemorates the 8th century hermit, St Baldred of Tyninghame.
