Luxury Travel Company Names Filey & Scarborough In Top Beach List

Friday, 16 June 2023 20:24

By Paddy

The Condé Nast Traveller magazine ranks Filey Beach above Scarborough's South Bay Beach in the list of top UK beaches 2023.

Filey Beach comes in at 24 in the list. Here's what they wrote about it:

"The best part of this sandy beach is the wildlife. Trek out to the north and find Filey Brigg: a stretch of stony land that protrudes out into the ocean, and is teeming with rock pools to explore. There's also the sculpture trail along the beach, and a series of colourful chalets dotted along the coastline that are available to rent - the ideal place to stay for a peaceful summer holiday by the sea"

Scarborough's South Bay Beach came 32nd. Here's how they described it:

"Legend has it that Scarborough, in North Yorkshire, was one of the world's original spas: pilgrims from as early as 1611 would come from miles around to bathe in the sea, the waters of which were thought to have peculiar healing properties. Today, the beach is just as picturesque as ever, with plenty of attractions to keep you occupied. Be sure to explore the 11th-century ruins of Scarborough Castle, which separates South Bay from its similarly stunning sibling, North Bay".
