Whitby is amazing, I attended the Whitby Goth Festival twice yearly for over 8 years dressed in Victorian Gothic fashion. It is an amazing place. The great-grand nephew of Bram Stoker, Dacre Stoker, did a book signing there last week. It has a fantastic feel and is full of history. You must go and visit if you can.

I'm local to Whitby, and was great to see people enjoying themselves here, hope you visit again, I work at one of the restaurants here, and see so many people pass through every year. It's a great day out here 🙂

It's great place to visit. I've been to Whitby, a beautiful and peaceful seaside town.

All these places in the UK look so beautiful. What a story this one has guys! Great vid 👍 - Trevor

This is so underrated! This should have more likes and more views! I have really enjoyed this video it is very informative💖

How can people hit the dislike button on this. Pathetic some people are just horrible. Whitby is a fantastic place to visit value for money and so much history it would definitely fill your wkd break with change to go home with. There is so much more to Whitby than Dracula.

Great Video, we live in Whitby

This must be one of your earliest videos! Whitby and York are 2 of the BEST destinations. Whitby - famous for its Abbey, Dracula, its harbour, Capt James Cook RN, fish+chips, Whitby Jet and several shops selling jewellery made from it, the steam trains running to & from Pickering (the North York Moors Railway) and SO MUCH MORE. (This was a good video).

. It's actually a gorgeous area. Love the architectural detail in the buildings are cool. Love that they have a Bram Stoker bench.

So eerie yet amazing history.

Love you guys...been to Whitby twice now.i'm surprised Alex didn't mention the world famous fish and chips,we all know how much he loves his food. That Dracula experience was more like a nightmare lol. When are you guys off to turkey?

Love it!! Thank u guys!! We just saw it with my mom 😊 she loved it too.

I've only been to Whitby once, as a young kid. My dad's friend told me Whitby was the first place Dracula landed in the UK, and that he was buried here. He said you can't go near his grave because he can be revived by your life force. Safe to say I didn't sleep for the whole trip.

As it's on the East coast of England it seems odd that the sun sets over the sea, but in summer it actually does. In fact it both rises and sets over the sea. Whitby is one of a few places where this happens, because of the shape of the coastline it actually faces almost due North, hence the East and West piers/cliffs, not the North and South.

We're visiting Whitby in two weeks! So this has been very insightful, thank you! :)))

Seems like a cool little city off the beaten path. Thank you for featuring this city. I have never heard of it. Keep up the good work.

Nice video of my home town. Just one point; there's no bay in Whitby, it's a harbour, maybe you guys were mixing it up with Whitley Bay.

Fantastico......

Whitby is not just famous for Bram Stoker's Dracula it also claim to fame Captain James Cook lived in Whitby and it was also a whaling port in the 17 and 18 hundreds and it's most claim to fame is the beautiful Whitby Abbey that stands above this beautiful seaside town

That's only half the story of Bram S. For the other half you'll need to go and investigate Dublin his home town. You might find it very interesting. We have a place in Whitby by the way, and visited Dublin, to find this out.

I can see you don't take the Dracula experience in enough, fair enough but i think my uncle has put a lot of work and effort into it and loads of goths love it.

The owiginal title might have been: Woger the Wascally Wampire of Whitby.

OMG, during my unforgettable trip across the pond in 2008 to visit my penpal-turned-galpal...we went to Robin Hood's Bay for a weekend (which was wonderful) and on the way back to her her house, we thought about stopping at Whitby. We didn't, but figured we return another day..which never happened. Never knew about the Dracula connection to the place. Like you, I'm not much into the vampire story, but this is nonetheless fascinating!

OH FUNNY I FROM BRASIL I LOVE ENGLAND 😎🙏🇧🇷

The Whitby Witches written by Robin Jarvis is a fantastic series & you can find all the locations as they actually exist.

Do you know what, forget about it, I've already found it was in fact a place called Crumbs 'n' Cobbles because I just compared every picture of every cafe in Whitby and used this video as reference. Not going to lie, I'm glad I took the time because I wrongly assumed it was another business I saw on Google Maps called Greedy Pig all week but now I know it was Crumbs 'n' Cobbles if you want that Full Yorkshire English Breakfast.

I'm from Croydon going there this year for the first time, how are people supposed to know where to go if you don't bother telling them either in the video or in the description where it is leaving us to do our own CSI work with Google Maps and the clues seen before she steps into the place; you may as well not have included that Full Yorkshire English Breakfast since you forgot to even tell people where to find it if they want to try that Yorkshire novelty themselves.

Hey guys. nice video , but the breakfast caught my eye the most . Quick question please I didn't see any fried tomatoes???. Anyway as I've told you before I live in the USA. and am unable to get sausages and bacon. Yeah sure I can get what they pass for them but nothing beats true British sausages and bacon. I will be honest,what I miss most is sausage sandwich with real butter on thick fresh bread so that the butter is dripping from the sandwich. a good old sausage sarnies, and the same with the bacon piled high a good old fashioned bacon butty. I'm going to go and sit in front of the fridge and sulk while I look at the stuff that is supposed to pass for sausage and bacon here. Be safe guy's.
