Your Scarborough Travel Guide: Where to Start

Scarborough has been welcoming visitors to the Yorkshire coast for generations, and it’s easy to see why. Two sandy bays, a historic castle on the headland, a lively seafront and miles of coastal paths make it a destination that suits couples, families and groups of friends. This Scarborough travel guide collects practical local tips from the team at Norbreck Hotel, so you can plan your trip with confidence.

Planning Your Visit: Practical Tips

  • Book early for busy dates. Summer weekends and event nights, such as Open-Air Theatre concerts, fill up quickly.
  • Bring comfortable shoes. Scarborough is hilly, and many of the best views come after a walk up to the headland.
  • Pack for changeable weather. A windproof layer is useful on the coast, whatever the season.
  • Combine a round of golf with your stay. Read our guide to golf in Scarborough for South Cliff Golf Club.
