Welcome to Runswick Bay

Runswick Bay is a picturesque village located on the North Yorkshire coast. It is a popular destination for tourists due to its stunning scenery, sandy beach, and charming cottages. The village is surrounded by cliffs and hills, providing visitors with breathtaking views of the North Sea. The beach is perfect for swimming, sunbathing, and exploring the rock pools. There are also several walking trails in the area, including the Cleveland Way, which offers stunning views of the coastline.

The village of Runswick Bay has a rich history, dating back to the 16th century. It was once a thriving fishing village, and many of the cottages were built by fishermen and their families. Today, the village is a popular holiday destination, with many of the cottages now used as holiday homes. The village has a small selection of shops, cafes, and pubs, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind.

One of the most popular attractions in Runswick Bay is the annual Lifeboat Day, which takes place in August. The event is a celebration of the village's lifeboat crew and raises money for the RNLI. Visitors can enjoy a range of activities, including a lifeboat display, a craft fair, and live music. The event is a great way to experience the community spirit of Runswick Bay and support a worthy cause.
