The town of Whitby has been established for more than 1400 years. One of the most popular attractions is Whitby Abbey, located on a cliff-top and offering stunning views over the town and its harbour. The abbey itself dates back to the 7th Century when the town was first established. Within the abbey itself you will find a shrine for St Hilda. Another popular attraction is the Captain Cook Memorial Museum. This is housed in a stunning 17th Century House on the harbour-side and is where the world-renowned explorer James Cook stayed whilst serving his apprenticeship back in 1746. Children will enjoy a visit to the Whitby Wizard. This is the first science centre opened in North Yorkshire and visitors can have some fun trying out the various hands-on exhibits. However, another of the local attractions is probably best left to the grown-ups: the Whitby Ghost Walks. These take place in the evenings and you will discover more about the supernatural aspects of the town and some of the more nefarious deeds to happen in the region.
