Whitby | MAP | | INFORMATION |

Whitby is an ancient fishing port that nestles between the North York Moors and the North Sea at the mouth of the River Esk.

The town's skyline is dominated by the ruins of St. Hilda's Abbey, high on the East Cliff. Spreading below, a maze of alleyways and narrow streets run down to the busy quayside. From the old town, 199 steps lead up to the parish church of St. Mary, one of the finest examples of Anglo Saxon churches in the country, and whose churchyard gave
Bram Stoker the inspiration to write his world famous book, Dracula.

Whitby has produced it's own famous sons. Among these are Captain James Cook, the 18th century explorer and voyager, the outstanding father and son whaling masters of the Scoresby family and pioneer photographer, Frank Meadow Sutcliffe.
