Aldbrough village is surrounded by open fields, and there are many lovely walks in and around the area. Our coastline boasts over 40 miles of sandy beaches and although sometimes it may be difficult to get on to the beach at Aldbrough, nearby Mappleton beach is easily accessible, and perfect for an early morning walk.

Our local beaches are also ideal for fishing, in addition to the sea there are fishing lakes situated in the village and fishing can be arranged with the owners. Hornsea Mere offers fishing and boating.
