The Yorkshire Coast is one of the UK’s most popular seaside destinations and this breath-taking coastline boasts rocky coves, towering cliffs and glorious beaches, many with the coveted Blue Flags - perfect to enjoy some great surfing on a glorious warm summer’s day!
Experience thrilling activities on land, in the air or on water all set against the beautiful backdrop of the North York Moors National Park. Bring your sense of adventure, and swing through the trees, glide through the air or climb a rock!
For a more bustling and buzzing atmosphere, enjoy Scarborough, packed with action and catering for the whole family. Between the safe, sandy beaches of the North and South Bays is the harbour where the fishing boats still land their catch, overlooked by Scarborough’s medieval castle. Traditional seaside attractions and a busy shopping centre along with its parks, gardens and Europe’s largest Open Air Theatre, playing host to some of the biggest names in the music industry, all add to Scarborough’s appeal.
