This new project, called Moor to Sea, is designed to further boost the tourism economy and extend the season by:
- Highlighting the North York Moors Coast’s trods, trails and tracks to encourage use of sustainable transport
- Creating new packages for niche, high growth sectors such as the celebrations’ market
- Working with local people on collaborative product and business development
- Making better use of recent (and planned future) infrastructure improvements

We recently held an event at Raithwaite Hall to kickstart the project. Here are the presentations from the event: Catriona McLees - North York Moors National Park Authority - marketing and funding update Mike Hawtin - North York Moors National Park Authority - outdoor activities Susan Briggs - North York Moors Tourism Network - marketing and business support and product development |
How to get involvedWe'd like to work with tourism businesses along the North York Moors National Park's coast, from Saltburn to Cloughton and those around 10 miles inland who encourage their guests to visit the coast.
If you'd like to benefit from the project, please email Susan Briggs and include the following information: a) 3 lines about you and your business; b) What would you like to improve or achieve? c) Any ideas you already have, that you’d like advice on |
