SCARBOROUGH ENGLAND | The best holiday seaside town in the UK?

We take a walk along the beach and seafront in Scarborough North Yorkshire, England. This holiday destination has everything you could want from great beaches, castle, the Grand Hotel, amusement arcades and more.
Scarborough is a town located on the North Sea coast of England. It is a popular seaside resort in the county of North Yorkshire.
Scarborough is situated on the east coast of England, facing the North Sea. The town's location has made it a popular destination for tourists and holidaymakers seeking beachside activities.
Scarborough has a rich history dating back over 3,000 years. The town was established as a Viking settlement and later developed into a medieval fishing village. Its strategic location led to the construction of Scarborough Castle, which overlooks the town and the sea.
The town's main industry is tourism. It has been a popular holiday destination since the 17th century, attracting visitors with its sandy beaches, traditional amusement arcades, and picturesque seafront.
Seaside holiday Attractions: In addition to Scarborough Castle, other notable attractions include the Spa Complex, a venue for concerts and events; Peasholm Park, a beautiful Japanese-themed park with a boating lake; and the Stephen Joseph Theatre, known for its association with playwright Alan Ayckbourn.
Scarborough boasts two beautiful beaches, North Bay and South Bay, which offer opportunities for swimming, sunbathing, and various water sports.
Scarborough Fair: The town was immortalized in the popular English ballad "Scarborough Fair," which recounts a love story associated with the town's historical market fair.
Scarborough is well-connected by road and rail. The A64 road links the town to York and Leeds, while the Scarborough railway station connects it to major cities in the region.
Beyond its beaches and parks, Scarborough is also close to the North Yorkshire Moors National Park, a stunning area of natural beauty with rolling hills, forests, and heather-covered moorland.
I love Scarborough and I hope you visit soon for a holiday in this amazing travel destination full of great attractions!

    I spent several weeks in Scarborough with a friend many years ago. I liked the city very much. We walked the Cleveland way further north in summer and I still have the best memories. I really enjoyed staying in Scarborough. I am from Germany and I wish I owned a house somewhere in the countryside of Yorkshire. Best would be on the seaside with a small pub to relax there. On our walk we found several of those. And yes, Scarborough would be fine although it seems it is also a bit busy sometimes. 🙂 Brilliant video, thank you so much. :-)

    I’ve been going to Scarborough from a very young age. I’ll admit that a lot of the shops have shut down which is pretty annoying, but there’s still a lot to see and do. There’s a nice Italian restaurant I love dining at, there are a few good shops, the views and architecture are nice, and there’s the swimming baths (which I’m worried might be closing down. I hope it doesn’t close but I’m glad I got to go at least once).

    I think you should visit Bury St Edmunds! It’s a great market town in Suffolk with a lot of history! Abbey Gardens is especially beautiful. Abbey gate Street is also a very good shopping street and then there’s the lively market and the Arc Shopping Centre. Bury St Edmunds actually has quite a few independent shops. It’s worth a visit!

    You'd love it you really would. If you're planning on staying over I highly recommend the premier inn the one that is a stones throw from all the shops and the beach. Hotels to avoid I'd say without a doubt St Nicholas Hotel/Travelodge unless you want to get bitten to hell by fleas, shocking quality rooms in there. 2 much better Hotels are Palm Court (it has a swimmimg pool) which is over the road from premier inn or Crown Spa which is another lovely hotel that also has a swimming pool but it's not cheap, even 10 years ago a round of drinks which consisted of two double baileys and 2 half a Lemonade's and the price was shocking, no change out of £20 let's put it that way, I had to pay around £22 just for those drinks so I'd highly recommend going into town, having some drinks there and save yourself a small fortune 😀
