Seaside

The Yorkshire Coast is one of the UK’s most popular seaside coasts, with a mix of designated heritage coast around Flamborough Head and a choice of Britain’s best holiday seaside resorts. The country’s oldest historic seaside resort is at Scarborough where the

first bathing machines arrived in 1735 followed by fame as a spa town after the discovery of mineral spa waters at South Bay.

Blue Flag beaches along the Yorkshire Coast are numerous and include Filey Beach, Scarborough North Bay and Whitby West Cliff Beach.
