If you don't fancy walking up the 199 steps, then takea a taxi, take in the view, have a pint at the Whitby Brewery, then walk down the 199 steps!

Exciting and interesting place for all ages. The refurbished museum is excellent, it’s amazing to clamber around the Abbey ruins and the steps up from Whitby to get there are a fun challenge (though the over 80s avoided the steps and went by car. Parking was ample but there was a long queue to buy a ticket).
