SANDSEND near Whitby: The Cutest Seaside

SANDSEND In Yorkshire is a seaside village located between Staithes and Whitby, and just a short drive from other holiday towns like Scarborough and Saltburn. Sandsend has a great beach, fantastic cafes, hotels, and even holiday cottages f you want to stay over and enjoy a beach holiday in North Yorkshire. Come with me as I explore Sandsend, from the TIdes cafe to the Sandside Cafe and everything in between.
Sandsend, a delightful fishing village nestled in North Yorkshire, England, offers a charming escape for those seeking a tranquil coastal retreat. Situated a short distance north of the historic town of Whitby, Sandsend rests within the vast North York Moors National Park - a paradise for walkers, nature enthusiasts, and anyone yearning for fresh air and breathtaking scenery. Originally two separate villages, Sandsend and East Row, they eventually merged to create the charming destination it is today.
The crown jewel of Sandsend is undoubtedly its magnificent sandy beach, stretching over two miles. This golden expanse beckons visitors to relax on the shore, indulge in the timeless fun of building sandcastles, or take a refreshing dip in the sea. Beyond the beach, Sandsend caters to walkers and cyclists with the Cleveland Way National Trail winding through the village. This scenic route provides the perfect path for exploring the surrounding countryside, offering stunning vistas of rolling hills, lush valleys, and the dramatic coastline. Keen birdwatchers will delight in spotting an array of feathered friends soaring through the skies, while nature photographers can capture unforgettable memories of the park's natural beauty.
History buffs will find themselves captivated by the ruins of Mulgrave Castle, a 13th-century sentinel perched dramatically on a cliff overlooking the sea. Explore the castle remnants and step back in time, imagining life within its walls centuries ago. As the tide recedes, the coastline transforms, revealing a treasure trove of rock pools teeming with life. Be amazed by the diversity of marine creatures, from scuttling crabs and elusive lobsters to starfish clinging to the rocks. Explore the rock pools with a sense of wonder, unearthing the hidden wonders of the intertidal zone.
For a taste of local culture, head to the village pub - a quintessential element of any British village. This welcoming haven offers a delightful space to unwind after a day of exploration. Savor a hearty meal prepared with fresh, local ingredients, or quench your thirst with a refreshing pint of ale. Soak in the charming atmosphere and enjoy conversations with friendly locals who are likely to share stories and recommendations for hidden gems in the area.
Sandsend's idyllic location makes it a perfect jumping-off point to explore the nearby town of Whitby. A vibrant tourist destination steeped in history, Whitby boasts the impressive Whitby Abbey, a dramatic ruin perched on a hill overlooking the harbor. Explore the maze of cobbled streets lined with independent shops selling everything from locally-made crafts to traditional seaside souvenirs. Indulge in fresh seafood dishes at harborside restaurants, watching the fishing boats bobbing on the waves. With its rich tapestry of natural beauty, historical intrigue, and inviting atmosphere, Sandsend promises an unforgettable escape for visitors seeking a quintessential English coastal experience.

Sandsend is a lovely place to visit and now with the £2 cap living in Middlesbrough, that's all it'll cost you to get there and £2 to get back. Until December 2024 anyway . catching the X4 arriva 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

What a beautiful place! I grew up just a little bit to the north but don't think I was ever there. The scenery where I am now in the US doesn't even compare! Would love it if you got up to the North Shields, Tynemouth, Cullercoats area sometime.

Wonderful place. Never been there. Never knew it existed. So many areas to explore. I bet those Becks become raging torrents after heavy rains.

[@jamesjackson7844]

There lovely walks along the old railway line but walking boots are recommended.The fishing is also quite good,you will need a beach caster to get over the rocks.

I was hoping he would have done that!

[@rogertemple7193]
