The original seaside resortStunning scenery, glorious beaches, loads to do and see – is it any wonder thatpeople have been flocking to Scarborough for nearly 400 years?

Scarborough’s is a story of many ‘firsts’. The town became known as probablythe world’s first seaside resort back in the 1600s, when the health-givingproperties of the Spa waters were discovered. Bathing machines to preserveswimmers’ modesty as they took to the sea were first seen here. And by themid-1800s, with the coming of the railways and the popularity of sea bathing onthe rise, Scarborough was the venue for two of the world’s first purpose-builthotels, The Grand and The Crown.

But despite its rich history, Scarborough doesn’t live in the past. The town isconstantly innovating to keep its place as one of the most popular holidaydestinations in the UK.
