WHITBY 🦇🧛‍♀️

Popular Trip

Spend time in the ancient sea port of Whitby!

Famous for its quirky narrow streets, bustling harbour, fish & chips and the ruins of the gothic abbey that was the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s ‘Dracula’

Whitby has a fascinating history, a ruined abbey and a working harbour. It also has sandy beaches, donkey rides and rock pools, not to mention some of the best fish and chips in the world.

The cobbled Church Street leads you to the foot of the famous 199 steps leading from the town to St Mary’s Church and the Abbey Headland.

The West Side of the town has some historic fishermens’ cottages, hidden in traditional yards behind the fish market and main shopping streets. 

The Whalebone Arch and bronze statue commemorating Whitby’s most famous explorer, Captain James Cook, stand proudly on the West Cliff, facing directly across the harbour to the Abbey.
