About This Place

Located in the beautiful countryside of the North Yorkshire Heritage Coast, just north of Scarborough, is the little known beach of Hayburn Wyke. Here the coast path dips down through the woods to emerge next to a pair of waterfalls. --> The curving bay here is made up of rocks and small boulders, so you won’t be needing your bucket and spade. The rocks and cliffs here are a good place to look for fossils with quite a few rare plant species to be found. Hayburn Wyke is just off the popular Cleveland Way coastal walking route. The area can also be reached via the Cinder Track, a disused railway track which runs between Scarborough and Whitby.

💡 Our Take

Looking for a dog-friendly beach escape in North Yorkshire? We at DogParkUK recommend Hayburn Wyke! Dogs are welcome year-round on this beach, which is a huge plus. While a bit pebbly rather than sandy, it's still great for a good sniff and explore. Parking is available nearby, but facilities are limited, so bring your own water and poop bags! Be mindful of the water, as there are no immediate lifeguard services. Hayburn Wyke is ideal for active dogs who love to hike and swim, although perhaps keep a close eye on puppies due to the pebbles. Enjoy this coastal gem!
