  • We visit Scarborough for a walk along the seafront from Scarborough Castle to the Grand Hotel, passing all the amusements, fish and chip shops, the beach and sea, the hotels and pubs and all the other places that make your holiday here the perfect one.
    Scarborough South Bay on the Yorkshire Coast is a quintessential British seaside resort, perfect for a nostalgic trip down memory lane or a fun-filled family vacation. Here's what awaits you:
    A Sandy Paradise: The star of the show is undoubtedly the beach. South Bay boasts a beautiful stretch of golden sand, ideal for building sandcastles, paddling in the shallow waters, or simply soaking up the sun. The sheltered location ensures a safe environment for young children to play, while lifeguards patrol the beach for added peace of mind.
    Classic Seaside Holiday Fun: A traditional promenade flanks the beach, bustling with amusement arcades, souvenir shops, and cafes selling seaside staples like fish and chips and ice cream. Kids will be enthralled by the flashing lights and exciting games, while adults can indulge in their inner child with a go on the penny slots or a ride on the Ferris wheel. Don't forget to try the famous Scarborough Fairground, a historic open-air amusement park offering a delightful dose of nostalgia.
    Top 5 Scarborough Tourist Attractions:
    1. South Bay Beach: The star of the show, this beautiful stretch of golden sand is perfect for building sandcastles, paddling in the shallow waters, or simply soaking up the sun on your holiday.
    2. Scarborough Spa: A grand Victorian building, this Grade II listed landmark houses a theatre, a ballroom, and a conference center, often hosting events and shows. Take a stroll along the harbor and admire the colorful boats lining the piers.
    3. Scarborough Castle: History buffs can explore this majestic 11th-century ruin perched on a headland overlooking the bay, offering stunning panoramic views.
    4. SEA LIFE Scarborough: This aquarium showcases the wonders of the underwater world with interactive exhibits and fascinating marine creatures.
    5. South Cliff Italian Gardens: Take a break from the sun at this delightful terraced garden adorned with colorful flowers and sculptures.
    Beyond the Beach: Venture beyond the shoreline to discover the charming South Bay neighborhood. The Scarborough Spa, a grand Victorian building, is a must-visit on your holiday. This Grade II listed landmark houses a theatre, a ballroom, and a conference center, often hosting events and shows. Take a stroll along the harbor and admire the colorful boats lining the piers. Boat trips operate from here, providing scenic tours of the coastline or exhilarating speedboat rides. History buffs can explore Scarborough Castle, a majestic 11th-century ruin perched on a headland overlooking the bay, offering stunning panoramic views.
    Family-Friendly Activities: South Bay caters perfectly to families. Donkey rides along the beach are a timeless seaside tradition, offering a unique and memorable holiday experience for children. Take a break from the sun at the South Cliff Italian Gardens, a delightful terraced garden adorned with colorful flowers and sculptures. SEA LIFE Scarborough is another great option, showcasing the wonders of the underwater world with interactive exhibits and fascinating marine creatures.
    A Vibrant Atmosphere: South Bay comes alive during the summer months, with a vibrant atmosphere electrifying the streets. Street performers entertain crowds, musicians fill the air with melodies, and the aroma of freshly-made candy floss tempts passersby. In the evenings, enjoy a delicious meal at a beachfront restaurant, watching the sun set over the bay and painting the sky in a kaleidoscope of colors.
    Scarborough South Bay offers an abundance of charm, catering to all ages and interests. Whether you seek classic seaside fun, historical exploration, or a relaxing holiday escape, this delightful Yorkshire town promises an unforgettable seaside experience.

    My parents took me and my sister 30 years ago for the first time on holiday, we always stopped in the same guest house on Alma Square, the sea front has not changed much, maybe a few changes in shop names

    Dude in the yellow coat who walked in front of you at 7:15 mins was being a total tool. Great vid as always. Love Scarborough but not been for a few year now. I hear from a local I know that there's a lot of empty boarded up shops in the town centre

    • @GimbalWalkTV
      @GimbalWalkTV  10 місяців тому +3

      Yeh that guy wasn't my favourite kind of person
      Scarborough isn't that boarded up really - in fact I'd say the opposite. I was there at the weekend and walked around the centre with rebecca my partner and we were saying how it was much better than it was
      There's a video of it coming soon that I filmed too
