Is This YORKSHIRE Beach The Best In England?

[@caramg1988]

I live 5 minutes from Saltburn, it's such an amazing place, though I do avoid it in the summer holidays when it's really busy. The chippy by the pier is the best one outside of whitby, it has a restaurant upstairs with the most unbelievable sea views. The cafe camfields by the car park you were parked in has the best ice creams, and the valley gardens are really beautiful. I spent my childhood winkling along the coast every weekend with my dad, the rock pools at the bottom of huntcliff on Saltburn beach are brilliant. Skinningrove beach is beautiful, one of our best is Runswick bay - heaven

[@elliegreen4738]

Skiningrove beach is the most beautiful beach I've ever seen and unbelievably secluded and quiet. Stunning North Yorkshire coast, this is a country worth fighting for, like Ireland.

[@bythecurb]

Absolutely

Saltburn around by the pier is a little hidden gem, almost a place lost in time.

[@jimchatterton6836]

Bloody Hell!..I nearly got the bus to Redcar today to have a walk along beach to Saltburn!..I would have shouted "Gizza chip greedy Bastard!" If I'd seen you?!😀..I used to live in Marske and have walked that beach hundreds of times..it's a lovely day out walking coastal path from Saltburn to Whitby and getting bus back or making a night of it in Whitby!...if you had in Saltburn till 4 you would have seen the Red Arrows flying by?

It always strikes me a little that as the crows fly, one just knows so little about England in this case. Even in a tiny country as Holland is, I sometimes drive just to nowhere thinking wow this is a beautiful area.

You cannot beat our seasides on a beautiful day. Ive been all along that coast from Bamburgh to Bridlington and never heard of Skinningrove beach...its gorgeous ! Staithes is beautiful but if you go out of season, it's empty because they are mostly holiday homes. South Shields and Seaburn (Sunderland) is beautiful. There is a pub on the beach called The Grotto, which is actually built into the cliffside... Can I just add, your camera work is getting better and better x

North Bay beach, Bridlington, is by far one of the very best on the Yorkshire coast. Toilets are clean, it has a stop for the land train, the headland is wide and verdant, it's safe for families/children/loan wanderers and has one of the very best fish and chips kiosks anywhere on the coast. It's quite literally 9 steps up from the sandy beach.

[@MikeCrazyDayzMikalaneSmithson]

It looks really beautiful. I'm originally from Sheffield and I will always have a soft spot for Yorkshire. I have lived in Norfolk for the past 15 years and have to say it's home to some of the most quietest and beautiful beaches in the UK.

Helen: If you have a few days, this area is lovely. Saltburn is a delightful Victorian small town (you can walk the whole length in 15 mins or so) the houses on the front are FIVE storeys high, magnificent architecture. There is a music festival every year around 12th August, music and dancing in the street. The lift to the pier is (or was) 50p each way (I walk down and ride up!). Then further down the coast are the other two Skinninggrove and Staithes which are a lot smaller, not much at either except the sea 🌊⛱ Robin Hoods Bay is also a great visit 👍👍👍💯🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Saltburn is beautiful. Skinningrove is one if the most special places i have ever been. The locals are very parochial...and scared that some developers might build hotels and spoil it.

Grew up in Saltburn. Moved down south now, miss it so much. Awesome video

[@RandomDude-l5f]

Skinningrove beach is called "cattersty sands" just around that headland to the south, maybe 2 miles from saltburn, you can walk around on the ebb tide. That pier used to be twice as long, used to fish on it as a kid, got damaged in a storm and the council demolished the damaged half. lovely little town.

It was good to see you up my neck of the woods . The beach next to Skiningrove is called Cattersty Beach and yes you can park up at the Skiningrove car park . On your way out of Skiningrove there is a pub called The Kaskayn that sells fantastic food , if you ever decide to eat there next time you visit make sure your hungry the portions are huge . I'm in Galloway at the moment , did you carry on up North because im sure l you passed me by near Clateringshaws Loch . BTW The Cat Nab is good but you should've gone to The Sea View 10/10 .

Fabulous James - I've been to Ravenscar, Robin Hood's Bay and Whitby many moons ago but I'm really impressed with the places you've been on this trip. They remind me of the place I was born during the war - Morfa Nefyn on the Lleyn peninsula - Mountains, cliffs, clear green sea, puffins nesting in the cliffs and beautiful beaches. Furthermore, there is a pub on the beach - 'Ty Goch' superb beer and a lovely meal too ! I was last there in 2005 and had an unplanned meet-up with a work colleague from here in Essex. Blow me, when we got back to work our Deputy Head had visited the said pub too, unbeknown to us and during the same week!!! Well recommended should you venture out of your beloved Yorkshire. 😎🍺

Also gardens and seating areas at the other end if you go up the path left from the beach huts.Not to mention beautiful walks through the woods, and bandstand concerts in the summer.Skinningrove is beautiful too, but I don't have a car so don't get there much.I wondered what that ship was doing, it was out there for a while, so now I know, thank you!

Anyway, she went to great lengths to get curry powder and she mixed it like she would gravy and triumphantly placed it on the table.

James, thanks for taking us with you. Really enjoyed listening to the sea lapping against the shore and the walk along the beaches. Absolutely fabulous. Then you took us to Staithes 😱☠️ and lots of bad memories came flooding back. Back in the 80's it was a different place. Stayed right in the village down on the right of that steep hill. Had to drive down to unload car. Me, my now husband and my sister all fell out! (I won't add to a long story) It was dark and stormy and the sea was in. I needed to get car back up to that carpark in the dark, on my own. Had to find and grovel to my sister to come with me. Drove down that narrow road. Came to short slipway leading into sea. ( I think you passed it on your walk and it looked as if it was no longer accessible???). Anyway, I did a three point turn into that slipway .Yikes! I can see the waves behind the car even now! It was very dark! Managed it and drove up to that bloody car park at top of village. Then my sister and I walked down to the place we were staying. I found the place very creepy back then. Some villagers used to wear old fashioned clothing, women in bonnets etc. Got in to the lodgings and I put a chair under the door handle. Then we all split off into different rooms. Spooky Nightmare! 😱😱😱😂😂😂
