Built on the Irish Sea coastline, Whitehaven was once a centre for shipping and mining industries. Despite its industrial heritage, the town has preserved its charm and stunning shoreline. Its pretty harbour, built in 1624, and its 18th-century lighthouse were once vital for the town's traders. Today, they make great places to visit to learn more about Whitehaven's history.
