Whitby is famous for fish and chips, stunning views, Whitby Abbey and beach. Its rated as one of the best seaside towns in the UK so I decided to pay a visit to see what it is actually like.
I try out a highly rated fish and chip shop, climb up the famous 199 steps, check out Whitby Abbey, walk out on to the piers and beach.

Do you think Whitby is worth the visit? Comment below 😀

@jeanfoster8979 Жыл бұрын

Yes definitely

@frugalitystartsathome4889 Жыл бұрын

O Lord, yes! Lovely place to visit, it’s got history, good grub (for all pockets), good pubs, scenery, plus all the usual seaside amenities. Definitely recommend it if you’re in the vicinity.

The seagull "Dancing" is it's way of simulating rain therefore tricking earth worms to come up of which the will grab and eat.

Whitby is a great a place. I came up here for my birthday several years ago and had a great time. Lovely evening meal in Whitby, cracking dinner at the magpie chip shop and Robin Hoods Bay is a Gem not to far away!

This is the town I was born. The first big lighthouse was actually a beacon for bad weather and nighttime to guide boats in. Later when the 2 extensions were built another 2 beacons were added, red and green lights for port and starboard side again for poor visibility.

Thanks for the info. I was wondering about those!

@davidmarsden9800 Жыл бұрын

The thing on the pier you were wondering about is a capstan. It's for winding in rope, in this case a ship's mooring rope. In the shaped holes would go wooden planks as handles which a number of men would turn to wind up the heavy rope.

Behind the whalebones is the hotel where Bram Stoker stayed when he wrote Dracula. There's a blue plaque on the wall and you can stay in the same room.

They have a goth festival in April and October, and it’s rammed busy with people dressed up, you don’t have to be a goth to go there, it’s just fun music festival but the town goes the extra mile for tourists in those times. The people dressed up in steampunk and goth stuff, they put so much effort into their outfits it’s definitely worth seeing. They have an open air market called the bizarre bazaar, where you can buy stuff you’ll never get anywhere else!

Whitby is one of my favourite places. The mixture of people is also great, young and old. There's so much history. I can't remember if the Abbey is National Trust or English Heritage, but it costs to view up close. Dracula tunnel is a must, if you're a fan. And there's a great view of the Abbey and Whitby from Dracula Tunnel. From the tunnel, it's about a 8 mins walk to 6 Royal Crescent, where Bram Stoker used to live. Larpool Viaduct is worst a look, especially if you like photography.

Absolutely Love Whitby & for Me it is the Jewel of the North Yorkshire Coast! The Lighthouse is no longer in Service, the Tower like Constructions on each of the Piers have a Red Light to one & Green Light to the other & serve as Harbour Warning Lights at Night & in Bad Weather!. The lower part to the Pier is used for those Fishing. I'm pleased you made it on to the Beach it's Beautiful! Hope You enjoyed Your Visit & Thank You for making such a Lovely Video.

@susanbinks8868 Жыл бұрын

If you go to Whitby again I'd recommend The Fisherman's Wife on the Khyber Pass for Fish & Chips. Places to visit Sandsend near Whitby or Robin Hood's Bay.💜

@stevehessle1959 10 ай бұрын

You picked a good time to visit as there weren't millions of day trippers. The benches on the steps to the Abbey were originally there for coffin bearers to have a rest. Papa's is OK (it's a local company to me from Hull), but the Quayside is better (over the bridge, turn right and keep your eye out on the left). Great town, go in Spring and have a shufty at the steam railway!

The wooden structures at each end of the piers are old Lighthouses added when the piers were extended in the early 1900s one painted red & the other pier blue probably so in foggy weather they knew which pier was east and which was west. ????
