Dr Amir Khan's favourite Yorkshire coast destination
Us Yorkshire folk are lucky to be the proud custodians of some the most enigmatic and beautiful coastlines the country. As someone who grew up very working class and for whom foreign holidays were something that only other people could afford, my family and I spent many a Saturday packing up the car heading over to the east coast. Whether it was Filey, Scarborough or Whitby, we were sure to build sandcastles, have a dip in the cold water and gorge ourselves on fish and chips.
But it is not just the seabirds that make this place so special. Seals can be seen bobbing up and down in the water and if you are lucky you may get a glimpse of a porpoise. The scrubby grasslands above the cliffs are home to kestrels who don’t seem to mind the many bird enthusiasts and go about their business of hunting rodents without so much a second glance. When I visited, I saw hares darting around the grass as well as a barn owl that silently floated past as evening set in.
