On Wednesday 3rd of May 2023 I visited the popular seaside resort of Scarborough in North Yorkshire. Scarborough is by far the largest seaside resort in the county of North Yorkshire and consists of a North Bay and a South Bay.

In this episode of North Yorkshire in Focus, I begin capturing the idyllic gardens of Scarborough's Peasholm Park. North Bay is often thought of as the quieter side of Scarborough although it is not short of things to do.

Crossing the road, I venture to Scarborough's North Bay Railway, Sky Trail, a water chute from 1931, and Scarborough Open Air Theatre. Walking by the very vibrant rentable chalets facing the North Sea, I follow the route of Scarborough's Royal Albert Drive discovering the Bathing Belle by Craig Knowles, and the sculpture of Freddie Gilroy that cost a staggering £48,000.

I then elevate myself on higher ground to walk beside Scarborough Castle where you receive views of North and South Bays as well as the castle itself. I gently return to shore level to explore the marina, harbour, Albert Strange Pontoons, Scarborough Lighthouse, a preserved naval gun that was discovered in the ocean, and the Diving Belle, another sculpture by Craig Knowles.

Following the trails of gift shops, cafes and restaurants, pubs and takeaways, amusements and other attractions upon Scarborough's South Bay, I capture the resorts busy side through to Scarborough Spa.

Crossing the Spa Bridge, I feature the Central Tramway, a statue of Queen Victoria and the Town Hall.

Although set back from Scarborough Seafront, I have also included some footage of the Midland Pullman charter train at Scarborough Railway Station. This train is a heritage diesel train painted in Midland Pullman livery.

I certainly enjoyed my visit to Scarborough, I hope you enjoy yours too!
