Whitby really does have something for every kind of visitor. Steeped in history, super-picturesque and explorable, with an abundance of great pubs, restaurants and cafés in town and in the surrounding coastal and country villages. Many of the pubs have regular live music, especially during the frequent, diverse festivals that take place in the town all year round. From Pirates to World Music, Soul weekenders to Folk Week, and of course the famous Goth weekends, inspired by the Dracula connection.

Great for families, couples, groups of friends … whether you like to explore beaches, museums, railways, pubs or hiking trails, Whitby and surrounding areas will keep you happy!
