Coast

The coastline of the North York Moors National Park is so special that it is also part of the North Yorkshire and Cleveland Heritage Coast.

Imagine high cliffs and rocky shores, attractive villages and remains of ancient industries, a coastline rich in wild flowers, nesting seabirds, fossils and abundant shore life. Wouldn't you wish you could visit it? Here in the North York Moors, our fabulous coastline has a clifftop path which you can follow for over 30 miles of exhilarating walking or you can take a gentle saunter along the beach. This is the North Yorkshire and Cleveland Heritage Coast, a very special place set within the North York Moors National Park and with an ever changing backcloth of sea and sky.
