Perhaps one of the most charming and popular fishing villages in the country, Robin Hood’s Bay lies six miles south of Whitby.

We also have more information about Robin Hoods Bay and Robin Hoods Bay Beach as well as Attractions and Information & Churches nearby.

It is a village of two halves, the upper part level and Victorian but the lower, older fishing village has quaint red-roofed cottages perched on the side of the cliff and jostling for space.

Nearby is the Robin Hood's Bay and Fylingdales Museum and the easy walk along the beach or cliff path to Boggle Hole and back. Once a haunt of smugglers the Bay is a well known location for fossil hunting and the study of marine life and at low tide the great expanse of scars (rock out crops) are clearly visible.

The beach has been regularly awarded the ENCAMS Seaside Award and will be flying the distinctive blue and yellow flag if appropriate.

Robin Hoods Bay is clearly not from the age of the motor vehicle, with many of the streets being little more than cobbled walkways.

As you walk through the narrow cobbled streets and alleyways, soak up some of the atmosphere of those ‘bygone days’ when sailors, fishermen, smugglers and press gangs roamed these very streets. Remember, one visit is never enough – you will be back…

There is a regular bus service through this village, bus number 93.
