Safety at night:Safe
Whitby, UK, is generally a very safe place, even at night. The community is small, welcoming and the crime rate is relatively low. Nonetheless, as in any place around the world, it's always wise to be cautious and mindful of one's surroundings particularly during the quieter hours. Avoid poorly lit or deserted areas when you can, and always let somebody know your whereabouts. Given its seaside location, it's also important to be careful around the water, especially at night.
