Whitby is the perfect destination for anyone looking to explore the Yorkshire coast. There are some wonderful hiking trails where you can discover nearby beauty spots, the Cleveland Way along the cliff tops and the Cinder Track from Whitby to Scarborough are some of the most popular routes. There are also regular buses or even the steam train in the summer to visit destinations across the North York Moors, as well as coastal villages such as Robin Hood’s Bay and Staithes. There is always something happening in Whitby, from Goth festivals to live music and regattas. Keep an eye on the busy year-round calendar to see what’s happening during your holiday. Enjoy some award-winning fish and chips, join the surf school, or take a boat trip out for maybe a glimpse of the dolphins and seals that frequent our coastline. There is lots to see and do.
