Visit the North York Moors
and Yorkshire Coast

Heather moorland, fishing villages, and seaside resorts

Whitby Harbour and AbbeyThe North York Moors and further south the lovely Yorkshire Wolds are the scenic background to the coastline with heather moors, rolling hills, picturesque country towns and historic houses. The North York Moors National Park offers great scenic variety - open moorland and secluded dales extending to the rugged coast. Explore the Park by foot, bicycle, park bus, or restored railway.

The Yorkshire coastline ranges from the golden splendour of some of Britain's finest beaches to the wavepounded rocks of the East Coast's highest cliffs. Visit picturesque Whitby, of Captain Cook fame, the resorts of Scarborough and Filey, and the fishing villages of Robin Hood's Bay and Staithes.
