Whitby Regatta

The Whitby Regatta is a boat lover's dream as people gather for a three-day festival featuring rowing team competitions, yacht races, and rafters competing against each other along the North Yorkshire county coast. There is fun for all at the annual Whitby Regatta!
The town of Whitby, which sits on the English coast in the county of North Yorkshire, is a small community of just over 13,000 people. It started out as a fishing village and became known for Whitby Jet production, a gemstone found along its coast. Now the town draws visitors for several festivals and events each year, including the Whitby Regatta.
