Filey, Seaside town in North Yorkshire, England

The wide sandy beach of Filey extends along the North Sea coast, providing five miles of continuous shoreline for walking and recreation.

The discovery of a Roman signal station from the 4th century in 1857 demonstrates the strategic importance of this coastal location through centuries.

St Oswald's Church contains medieval graffiti that documents over 400 years of maritime activities and local history through inscriptions on its walls.

The railway station connects visitors to the Yorkshire Coast Line, while numerous walking paths including Cleveland Way and Yorkshire Wolds Way end here.

Filey Brigg, a natural peninsula extending into the North Sea, creates a natural barrier that protects the town's fishing boats from northern winds.
