Staithes
Staithes is a charming picturesque fishing village, which has remained unspoilt by time. Its cobbled streets, narrow alleyways, pantile roofed houses and fishing cobles moored in the beck, attract artists from far and wide. The Staithes Group of artists were at the forefront of British Impressionist painting at the turn of the last century and their work can be seen in major public collections.

Captain Cook, the famous 18th century explorer came to live in Staithes when he was sixteen, as a shop apprentice and it was here, listening to the tales of local fishermen, that his fascination for the sea began. The Captain Cook and Staithes Heritage Centre on the high street, contains treasures from his entire life. There is a regular bus service through this village, Arriva bus number 5 and 5a.
