BOGGLE HOLE
Dog Policy: Dogs Allowed

Boggle Hole is on the same stretch of beach as Robin Hood's Bay and at low tide you can walk from Boggle Hole to Robin Hood's bay in about 10 minutes. This is where smugglers would land their contraband in days of old. The name Boggle means a sort of hobgoblin that folklore said inhabited the coves and nooks and crannies along this bit of coast. It is a very interesting stretch of beach with dramatic cliffs and a river which runs onto the beach which is a great source of entertainment for children (don't forget your wellies - you might have to cross it!). There is some excellent fossil hunting to be had here - fossils can be found along the foreshore, particularly after storms or when the sand has been washed away. (Make sure you don't go too close to the cliffs, they do crumble, quite a big chunk of cliff fell off when we were last there and it hit the ground with right old thump.) It is quite a steep walk down to the beach from the parking at the top. Just before you reach the beach, you go past the  popular Boggle Hole YHA, which underwent a £1.2m refurbishment in 2015. They have multiple bedrooms including dorm rooms, family rooms and ensuite rooms and a cafe / bar which is open to the public. 

Useful Information: It is about 500m from the parking down to the beach. You can't stay overnight with dogs in the YHA , but dogs are allowed in the cafe / bar area. Boggle Hole is signposted as a turn to the right off the A171 from Scarborough to Whitby. Postcode YO22 4UQ
