Whitby is set to welcome tall ships on the 250th anniversary of Captain Cooks first south seas expedition!

There'll be more than enough on offer to entertain the whole family at Whitby Captain Cook Festival 2018, from 18th century cooking demonstrations to heritage plays, live musical entertainment (including sea shanties) and - perhaps most importantly - tall ships! Among the tall ships confirmed are ATYLA, replica HMS Endeavour and the replica schooner HMS Pickle and we can assure you all three are worth a visit.
