Welcome to wonderful Whitby. This coastal town has something special, and has long been popular with visitors to Yorkshire’s Coast, owing to it’s delightful harbour, which is surrounded by pretty houses and accommodation, restaurants and fun things to do.<\/a> All this splendour is overlooked by historic Whitby Abbey, and alongside a sandy beach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The town is famous for its association with Bram Stoker<\/a>‘s Dracula, English explorer Captain James Cook<\/a> and the mysterious Whitby Jet<\/a>. Visitors can stroll along the harbour walls, from where seals, dolphins and porpoises can be seen as little fishing boats chug by. A boat ride is highly recommended.
