Attractions

Located in the heart of Whitby, The Seashore Apartments are a great base for exploring the town and nearby attractions. Whether you enjoy coastal walks or history, there’s plenty to see and do. Here are some of our favourite local spots.

Harbour Area and Swing Bridge

0-minute walk from Seashore Apartments. Take a walk along the harbour to see the Captain Cook statue and cross the Swing Bridge. It’s a lively spot to watch the boats.

Whitby Abbey

3-minute drive & 8-minute walk from Seashore Apartments. Perched above the town, Whitby Abbey is a centuries-old ruin with brilliant stories to match the views. Whether you visit for the history or the photo ops, it’s well worth the climb.

Whitby Train Station

5-minute walk from Seashore Apartments. Whitby Train Station is your ticket to a classic day out—hop aboard the North Yorkshire Moors Railway and swap the seaside for steam, moorland views, and charming stops along the way.

Whitby Beach

8-minute drive & 11-minute walk from Seashore Apartments. A favourite with visitors of all ages, Whitby Beach offers golden sands, scenic walks, and plenty of rock pools to explore. Just along the way, the harbour is ideal for watching fishing boats come and go against the backdrop of the town.

Captain Cook Memorial Museum

3-minute walk from Seashore Apartments. Located in the house where Captain James Cook lived, this small museum shares the story of the famous explorer and Whitby’s maritime heritage. It’s an interesting stop for all ages.

Pannett Park

10-minute walk from Seashore Apartments. Pannett Park is Whitby’s quiet corner – part museum, part garden, part playground – and all just a short walk from the town’s busy streets.

Whitby Museum

10-minute walk from Seashore Apartments. Located in Pannett Park, the museum offers displays on local history, geology, fossils, and maritime heritage. It’s a good indoor option and great for curious minds of all ages.

While we love a good celebration, our cosy accommodation is best suited for peaceful stays. For that reason, hen and stag dos (no matter how low-key) aren’t permitted. Thanks for your understanding

We like our guests with four legs too – bring up to two dogs!

Unfortunately, as the apartments are located on the first floor and can only be accessed via a stair case, they are not suitable for anyone in a wheelchair.
