Whitby and the North Yorkshire Moors

by Britannia2 - last update: Aug 15, 2007

Whitby in 2007

The north beach
Whitby seems to be enjoying an upturn in its fortunes. Perhaps its the Heartbeat factor but the number of people visiting here is quite international these days - there are even some Londoners too so something must have happened to put this wonderful little town on the map.
As with most of the Yorkshire coast the beaches are some of the best in England and there is good shopping and a real sense of history here.
The top 5 sites cannot be bettered and mine is very brief look at the town but also to show the nearby Yorkshire Moors which are under represented.
Sitting in the sun in the Market Square

A great place to eat and drink

The fish and chips are legendary here and there is something for everyone - there are some cafe bars and nice places to sit and enjoy the view as the photo shows
The view from the station

As soon as you arrive

As soon as you leave the railway station you are met with a wonderful view of the harbour and east cliff in front of you.

Pros:"A real sense of history mixes with beach and sea holidays"
Cons:"Very hilly - can be difficult for those with walking difficulties"
In A Nutshell:"Something for everyone here"

 Enjoyed your tips and photos! We're off to Whitby (my second visit) next weekend. My husband's family is from Redcar, so it's always a bit nostalgic for him.

 that narrow moors road pic looks like where we cycled up and about on our coast to coast cycle ride - lovely colour in your photo.
