The journey to Scarborough was long, but the destination made it worth it. I had never been to Scarborough before and found myself pleasantly surprised with what I saw along the way.

About Scarborough
Scarborough is the largest town in Scarborough with a population of about 130,000 people. It is at the mouth of the River Esk and has been central to fishing since Roman times.
I rode my motorcycle up one of Scarborough’s hills to get an aerial view of the town with its streets surrounding it like a spider web. The ride back down wasn’t as enjoyable but I still had some nice sights along the way such as looking out at the open fields.

It also has some amazing beaches that are perfect for relaxing and the views from Scarborough Castle over Whitby Harbour are beautiful too!
