Hull
Europe's longest single span suspension bridge when opened, the Humber Bridge is an incredible feat of engineering. Another is the world's only submarium, The Deep, with a glass lift giving you a shark's eye view of marine life. Hull's museums include the Maritime Museum, the former deep-sea trawler Arctic Corsair and Wilberforce House - birthplace of slavery abolitionist William Wilberforce.

Beverley
The beautiful medieval town of Beverley is dominated by the splendid Minster, one of the finest cathedral-size gothic churches in Europe. Five miles away at Skidby, you'll find Yorkshire's last working windmill and the Museum of East Riding Rural Life.

Scarborough
With its castle, harbour, bays and sandy beaches, Britain's first ever seaside resort is still a big favourite. Animals at the Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary include seal pups, turtles and otters, and nearby Atlantis is Europe's biggest water park.

Bridlington
Bridlington has something for everyone with its bustling harbour, long sandy beaches, seafront fairground rides. Pack your sealegs for a boat trip to Flamborough Head to see the lighthouse and soaring 400ft cliffs that are home to many nesting birds.
