Beautiful wide beach and a nice promenade. The visit is worthwhile not only in sunshine.

The gate of an old church. Unfortunately, I couldn't figure out what used to stand there, whether it was a monastery or something else. But I found this portal very impressive.

A great spot to add on your trip if you like puffins. They begin to arrive in late April and start settling into their burrows in May each year. By late July most of the chicks have fledged and the adults begin returning back to the open sea. By August all the puffins have left Bempton Cliffs as they spend the winter in the northern oceans.
