Robin Hood's Bay and Beach, in Whitby, has been ranked the third-best location for winter beach walks in England.

The ranking, by GO Outdoors, considered factors such as average rainfall, temperature, daylight hours, and popularity.

The beach received an average Google review score of 4.8 (out of 5) and had 765,700 Google searches in the past year, according to GO Outdoors.

Calum Jones of GO Outdoors said: "Although the cold weather may cause people to stay inside, there is no better time to explore the UK than the winter months.

"Some beaches, such as Robin Hood’s Bay, often remove car parking charges, and local eateries offer discounts during the off-season months.

"You may even spot local wildlife, such as seals, who return to the shore in winter months."
