September Sun Brings Tourism Boost For Yorkshire Coast

Visitors have told us they're visiting the Yorkshire Coast to make the most of the warm weather, before Autumn kicks in.

Jill and Dave from Chesterfield visited Scarborough to ESCAPE the heat. Back home in Derbyshire it was 28C, whereas on South Bay Beach yesterday it was a more manageable 20C when we spoke to them yesterday afternoon.

And they love Scarborough so much, they've decided to stay for week instead of two days:

Bill and Susan from York were also enjoying South Bay yesterday. They brought camping chairs, sun cream and a cool bag filled with drinks:

It's not been wall to wall sunshine though. Last night we took this very evocotive photo of the Endeavour replica shrouded in mist in Whitby Harbour:

The sea fret is being stubborn and is slow to burn away today in our Yorkshire Coast seaside resorts.

But forecasters say we will get plenty of sunshine this weekend and temperatures by the sea will rise to close to what inland areas have been seeing. It could reach 27C on the Yorkshire Coast tomorrow, with 30C likely inland.

This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.

If you appreciate what This is the Coast does, and would like to help support our journalism, please consider supporting us on a monthly basis today.

A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
