Marine Drive takes you around the prominent headland of Scarborough, connecting its two beaches - South Bay and North Bay.

Keep an eye out for 31 engraved granite storyboards lining the mile-long Marine Drive. Each 'Porthole in Time' offers a glimpse into Scarborough’s diverse history.

Cycling

A nice ride around the North Bay area of Scarborough. Be warned though, the entire width of the road is cobbled here for the whole length of the bay so good suspension on your bike will make it more pleasant! There is a large pavement but also a lot of pedestrians, especially in the summer so be careful and courteous.
