North Sea Wildlife

As well as cod, haddock, various kinds of flatfish, crabs and lobsters, the North Sea off Whitby is home to a wide variety of other marine creatures.

Seals are a regular sight, especially through the summer months. And in recent years that have been increased sightings of dolphins and even whales later in the summer.

You never know what you might spot once you leave the harbour. It's always a fantastic experience to see something unexpected!

Whitby harbour sits at the mouth of the River Esk, which runs from the moorland near Middlesbrough, down through the Esk Valley to the North Sea at Whitby.

The harbour is home to Whitby's famous swing-bridge. There's a large marina as well as the Lifeboat Station and moorings for Whitby's commercial fishing vessels.

The harbour is in the centre of town, accessible from both east and west of the river and surrounded by shops, cafes, restaurants pubs and more of Whitby's other attractions.

It is overlooked by the dramatic east cliff, on which stands the famous Abbey ruins and St Mary's Church.
