The Sea Caves refer to the many caves in the coastal cliffs at Wemyss. "Wemyss" is apparently gaelic for caves. (Source: Southern Stars Book, where the dance is published)
Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (5). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.
