Whitley Bay
seaside town on the north east coast of England
Whitley Bay is a seaside town in North Tyneside in Tyne and Wear, England. It used to be in Northumberland and has been part of Tyne and Wear since 1974.
The opening of the North Tyne Loop railway line in 1882, connecting the coastal villages to Newcastle, helped the tourism industry in the town. The railway is now the Tyne and Wear Metro.
