Whitby’s historic East Side has a close affinity with the sea and this self guided audio tour provides an ideal introduction to local pastimes like fishing and rowing as well as the shipwrecks along our shore. You'll never look at the East Side in quite the same way again. You'll hear about: • Whitby’s handcrafted Lucky Ducks • Whitby's fishing heritage • The legend of the Penny Hedge • How Whitby might have inspired one of Charles Dickens' most well-known characters • The German bombardment of the town in 1914 • J. M. W. Turner's roughest sketch • The Whitby Wyrm • How to spot vampire blood I’ll point out some of the quirkiest places to have a drink along the way as well as the viewpoints most people miss. Be sure to pack your camera if you’re into photography!

    Great tour. Devon’s Local knowledge was informative with lots of fun stories relating to folklore and legend. Particularly enjoyed his memories of his childhood and how parents could conjure up scary tales to excite children’s imaginations. Full of snippets of historical and cultural info about Whitby, however, not overbearing so kept us interested. GPS worked amazingly well. Kept you on the right path and will notify you if you veer off in the wrong direction. Explored areas we otherwise may have missed. Took us just over an hour, however you could have a coffee stop or lunch and then carry on. Great way to avoid group tours and explore at your own pace. Co-incidentally, Devons partner passed us as we were listening to the tour. Nod to her as it added a bit of quirkinesses and authenticity to the storyteller. Thoroughly recommend for all age groups, adults and children alike. Easy to download and you have it for life so could return to it in future visits.
