At any time of year, hikers and wildlife watchers will find Filey, a classic English seaside resort with a welcoming vibe, to be the perfect place to stay. It's a hidden treasure on the coast of Yorkshire. Set beside the magnificent Filey Bay, a long stretch of beautiful sand, and Filey Brigg and its shallow rockpools to the north, this North East Coast fishing town has been a popular resort since Victorian times. A low headland, Filey Brigg shields Filey Bay and offers excellent sea and bird watching throughout the year. To the south of Filey Bay, in the rspb Reserve at Bempton Cliffs, over 250,000 seabirds make their summer home. Numerous species of seabirds, including gannets, kittiwakes, puffins, guillimots, and razorbills, make their nests there. The waters of Filey Bay are a popular feeding ground for gannets. Waders, seabirds, and migrant warblers, finches, and thrushes can all be seen in the Brigg area. Seabirds, seals, porpoises, dolphins, and minke whales are just some of the marine animals that can be spotted in the water near the Brigg. The town itself retains much of its character, down to the unique shops, narrow paths, and ginnels. During the summer, visitors can rent out one of the charming beach chalets that dot the cobble landing and use the slipway where local fishermen keep their boats. Two promenades line the bay's shore, and brass bands perform in the various gardens on Sunday afternoons. Family fun, crazy golf, and candy floss await you in this quaint community. The Filey Dams Nature Reserve is a wetland area where a variety of birds can be seen, including common and rare waders and wildfowl, as well as large gatherings of swallows, sand martins, and house martins in the fall. Similarly, Parish Wood (accessible via Sycamore Avenue) is a hidden gem that is home to a plethora of flora and fauna. Willow warblers, chiffchaffs, blackcaps, and tree sparrows all breed there, and a wide variety of other species, like great spotted woodpeckers and sparrow hawks, are frequently spotted. Birds such as goldcrests, pied and spotted flycatchers, warblers, finches, thrushes, and woodcocks rely on Parish Wood for both shelter and food. Scarborough, a larger town just a short drive away, is home to the UK's first and only waterpark of its kind, the Alpamare Waterpark, and a plethora of other attractions and activities for visitors of all ages.
