magnificent Bempton Cliffs which tower vertically over 300ft above the
sea. See this important sea bird colony from a very different
perspective. Well worth it if the sea is calm. |

The Deep. This
houses one of the worlds (never mind Yorkshire's) largest aquarium
tanks in a stunning building
on the banks of the Humber Estuary close to the centre of Hull and all
the local museums. It attracts visitors from all over Europe. It really
is worth visiting if you have not been and why not visit some of Hull's
other museums, especially the maritime museum. |

Hull Museums. Several really good museums
and (All free)
with the unique chance to be taken on a guided tour around the
Arctic Corsair one of the last of Hull's side-winder trawlers (not open
every day so check and you may need to book and pay). If you
visit the Maritime museum look out for a photo of our great grandfather
peering out of the wheelhouse of his fishing boat. |
