There is something magical about Staithes, a sleepy seaside town with cobbled streets and back alleys. With a sandy beach nestled among the cliffs on three of its sides, it’s a lovely place to relax and enjoy a day out on the water. The village has ties to Captain Cook, who was apprenticed to a draper near the harbour while he was on his way to sea. Visitors to the Yorkshire Coast must stop in Staithes, as they will find a wide range of restaurants, pubs, and shops. A lifeboat station and a small fleet of cobles (fishing boats) are still in operation in Staithes, and boat trips for birdwatching as well as fishing and whale-watching are also offered. Old Jack’s Boat, a popular BBC children’s television series, was filmed there. In Staithes, art and heritage festivals, galleries and artists studios, as well as regular art courses and workshops are available. Tourists can take advantage of the free Illusion Trail, which leads them through the network of ginnels (alleyways). It’s best to see the town from the cliff’s edge on the Cleveland Way, which runs along the coast. The North York Moors National Park and the Yorkshire Coast are all within a short drive of the Staithes, making it an ideal starting point for exploring the area.
