Warnings Or Dangers: The ozone layer
  • Tip Rating:
  • There are two towns in England that I know of with a very high ozone layer - Blackpool and Scarborough. A few people find that after just a short while in Scarborough they develop headache and some dizzyness. I have heard of people retiring here but having to leave because they feel ill . Of course this rare but worth mentioning - we have a family member who can only stay in Scarborough for a short time before feeling ill.

  • Fog - or as they are called locally - sea rokes - are an occasional problem throughout the year.
    As the photo of the South Bay shows the castle that would dominate this view cannot even be seen. Outside the town it was a sunny June day but in town and the fog lies low. Everything feels damp and it is not pleasant. It lingers too so if you arrive early and there is fog head out of town and come back another day if you can.

     What a great page on a great beach town. Your image of St. Mary's at night is terrific. And Thornton as well as Scarborough are so - well - English looking. Asbury will be quite different, I assure you. Really enjoyed this. N.
