Staithes is a seaside village in the Scarborough Borough of North Yorkshire, England. With its higgledy-piggledy cottages and winding streets, Staithes has the air of a place lost in time.

Once one of the largest fishing ports on the North East coast, this beautiful coastal hamlet is now a well-loved base for exploring Yorkshire's cliff top paths and discovering the delights of rock pooling and fossil hunting on the small sandy beach.

Formerly one of the many fishing centres in England, Staithes Yorkshire is now largely a tourist destination within the North York Moors National Park.

The name Staithes derives from Old English and means 'Landing-Place'. It has been suggested that it is so named after being the port for the nearby Seaton Hall and Hinderwell. The spelling Steeas is sometimes used to indicate the traditional local dialect pronunciation /stɪəz/.

At the turn of the 20th century, there were 80 full-time fishing boats putting out from Staithes. A hundred years later there are still a few part-time fisher men.

There is a long tradition of using the coble (a traditional fishing vessel) in Staithes.

It was reported in 1997 that the Royal Mail were encouraging the occupants of Staithes to number their houses instead of relying on names. Whilst the regular postperson had no difficulty with the narrow streets and cottages, the relief postal staff were getting confused. Royal Mail also claimed it would aid efficiency by their postal machines which automatically read the addresses.

The CBeebies (CBBC) series Old Jack's Boat, starring Bernard Cribbins, is set in and filmed in Staithes, with Old Jack's house located at 4 Cowbar Bank in the village.

The 2017 Oscar Winning film Phantom Thread starring Daniel Day-Lewis features the famous cobbled streets of Staithes North Yorkshire England.

In 1745–46, Staithes' most famous resident, Captain James Cook worked in Staithes as a grocer's apprentice where he first gained his passion for the sea.

He moved to nearby Whitby where he joined the Royal Navy. William Sanderson's shop, where Cook worked, was destroyed by the sea, but parts were recovered and incorporated into "Captain Cook's Cottage".

In this 4K Virtual Walking Tour of Staithes Village we see the streets winding their way down to Staithes Beach, and all the quaint and cute houses of Staithes Fishing Village England.

I can thoroughly recommend a visit to Staithes England. It really is one of the best, cutest and most cinematic UK seaside towns.

So if you're looking for a relaxing day out, or maybe a holiday in a picturesque fishing village atmosphere head for Staithes UK
