Robin Hood’s Bay

Robin Hoods Bay Museum

Visit this unique local Museum and Mortuary! Run entirely by volunteers, the Museum is a Registered Charity. Number: 1177886.

Displays include fishing, shipping, local history and geology. Details of the many shipwrecks and historic rescues in the Bay are recorded and there is a unique model of a smuggler's house showing how contraband could be concealed! A life size model of a local fisherwife has many surprises up her sleeve.
