In August 1947, the concrete-hulled tugboat MV Creteblock struck the shallow reef at Whitby Scar while being towed out for scuttling. Dynamited as a shipping hazard, the vessel broke into massive, reinforced shards. Today, its heavy concrete remains stay permanently embedded across the beach rock pools.
Whitby Abbey headland car park. Walk East from Tate Hill Beach toward Saltwick Bay at low tide.
