Scarbs has done it again. The oldest seaside town in the country has been named one of the top destinations to visit – and with those views of the North Sea and its famous coastline – it’s easy to see why.
The seaside town sees thousands flock to its shores all year round to admire the natural beauty of the rugged coastline before heading into town to enjoy some classic seaside treats such as fish & chips and a go in the arcades.
And, with the likes of Scarborough Castle – a 12th-century castle, Peasholm Park, an oriental themed municipal park, and the incredible Victorian Cliff Lift Scarborough definitely lives up to its hype. The old town, filmed with old buildings and beautiful architecture is the perfect place to enjoy a drink or two after exploring.
The Yorkshire town by the sea has been named by Time Out Magazine as one of the top destinations to visit back in 2023 and it was also described as the “most beautiful seaside resort in England by CN Traveller, The Express reports. If two massive experts in the industry are promoting it, Scarborough must be doing something right.
And, we’ve not even mentioned the likes of Scarborough Open Air Theatre – Europe’s largest open air theatre – which has a whole host of huge acts playing throughout the summer season. This year includes, Status Quo, Sir Tom Jones, JLS, Madness, Rick Astley and many more taking to the stage.
But, it wouldn’t be the number one seaside town without beaches and Scarborough has two stunning sand spots including North and South Bay. North Bay, with its beautiful vintage beach huts and eclipsed by the cliffs, is the more chilled quieter of the two whilst South Bay is the perfect family day out with plenty of classic seaside activities such as donkey rides and a walk along the prom to enjoy.
