Yorkshire Coast, Coastal region in northeastern England

The Yorkshire Coast stretches over 90 miles from Staithes to Spurn Point, featuring chalk cliffs, sandy beaches, and multiple fishing harbors along the North Sea.

The region gained prominence during the Victorian era when Scarborough became the first seaside resort in England, establishing a tradition of coastal tourism.

The fishing heritage remains strong in towns like Whitby and Bridlington, where local markets showcase fresh catches and traditional smoking techniques for kippers.

Regular train services connect London to Hull and Scarborough in under three hours, while coastal buses link the various towns and villages throughout the region.

Boulby Cliffs rise 660 feet above sea level, making them the highest points on England's eastern coastline, offering extensive views across the North Sea.
