Loved this part of Scarborough, North beach is more picturesque than south, the promenade had lots of wet sand because it was raining, but the views were amazing, most part it's sandy with few pebbles, at the end, the extreme north is a bridge connecting to small cliff which has walking trails. Will most certainly visit in summer again
Nice seaside with sandy beach. This horseshoe bay has beautiful views overlooking the castle, the town and beyond. It is a great beach for family days out especially on a sunny day. The view from further up the road towards the castle is spectacular. There’s paid parking right opposite the beach. Scarborough is a beautiful town.
We love the north bay. Lovely views clean beach and plenty of places to relax with a drink. Also a lovely seafront walk
Best beach city in the North I've ever been to, amazing. I prefer the North vay to the South one.
Really nice beach with fabulous sea views,a lot of people love to surf here, Dexter's surf school is very popular
