Best beaches in Yorkshire to visit according to Yorkshire Post readers and which seaside resort was the most popular

Yorkshire has a beach for every family, whether it’s a vibrant one like Whitby or Scarborough with the hustle and bustle of the town filled with restaurants, cafes, shops to get busy with, or a secluded quiet one like Filey beach for those looking to get away from their day to day routine.

Many are also suitable for bleaker weather conditions where you can quickly pop into a cafe or restaurant to escape the rain or wind, there are also plenty of dog friendly beaches for those families with pets.

Sometimes it’s overwhelming just searching for what you want online, so we’ve asked Yorkshire Post readers what their favourite beaches are in Yorkshire.
