Yorkshire is not short of beautiful beaches, but if you're looking for somewhere a little more secluded to sun yourself when the April heatwave strikes, Kettleness Beach is definitely worth a visit.
Boasting a beautiful cascading waterfall that can only be reached by venturing down a steep cliff face, it's somewhat off the beaten track, to say the least.
Located on the Kettleness Headland between the villages of Runswick Bay and Sandsend, it forms part of a quiet cove on land that juts out into the North Sea.
The area is famed amongst fossil hunters who've found many rare pieces here, and on a clear day, you can see as far as Whitby Bay.
Reaching the beach itself, though, is not for the faint-hearted - as it's a bit of an effort to get down to it.
According to the Yorkshire Guide, you need to "scrabble down a very steep and uneven path whilst hanging onto rope" to make your way down to the remote beach.
The guide adds that, in wet weather, this can be very dangerous.
Once you get down there, though, you will be rewarded with the sight of a beautiful waterfall that cascades right onto the sand.
You might be lucky enough to find some dinosaur bones, too. Recently, a young man from Whitby who regularly scours the area's beaches found a rare 180 million-year-old ichthyosaur vertebrae here.
Liam Langley, 25, toldThe Scarborough News of how he dragged the large rock all the way up the rope access beach: “This month I found a large rock on the beach with the remains of a 180 million-year-old sea creature called an ichthyosaur that was swimming in the seas at the same time as dinosaurs were on land.
“It contains nine articulated backbones from the extinct sea creature.
“I dragged the large rock back from the rope access beach at Kettleness all the way to Runswick Bay. ”
So if you fancy a change, why not ditch the arcades this time around and go fossil hunting instead? You never know what you might find here.
A Leeds pizza takeaway has received a glowing review from popular review duo.
Edges Pizza opened up their first permanent spot in Leeds back in June this year, after making a name for themselves slinging out pizzas at multiple pop-ups across the city.
Owners Grace and Edge from Harrogate opened Edges Pizza two years ago, taking inspiration from trips to New York over the years.

Their pizzas are a love letter to the class New York slice, think thin and crispy rather than chewy and floppy. But above all else, think absolutely delicious.
And now, they've caught the attention of a major review page, with Bite Twice Food Reviews (a page with almost 300k followers) paying Edges a visit.
The food review duo of Gerry del Guercio and Paul Delany popped up in Holbeck beneath the arches to get their hands on a pizza, and the outcome is brilliant.
In the video, Bite Twice said that the pizza is 'f**cking exceptional' and up there with 'one of the best pizzas in the UK'.
Before even taking a bite, they said: "On aesthetic, I don't think anywhere in the UK is doing pizza like this".

Then after the first bite, they go on to say: "There are very few pizzas in the UK that create this, I’m a little bit blown away".
As Londoners themselves, they go on to say that Edges is 'easily hitting with the best that we’ve got down south'.
And if that's not high praise enough, they sign off the video saying: "Leeds has got an absolute gem. I give this a stamp so hard my foot went through the pizza. Edges. Don Level."
Yorkshire-set Christmas film by Leeds director starring Richard E. Grant set to hit UK cinemas next month
Clementine Hall
A brand-new Christmas film is hitting cinemas nationwide next month - and it’s a proper Leeds success story.
Jack Spring directed his first feature film at just 19 years old and has spent the last decade carving out a career in independent film, as well as co-founding Leeds-based production company Shush Films.
His first movie, Destination: Dewsbury, was shot just down the road in - you guessed it - Dewsbury. And after moving to Leeds from Grimsby, Jack became determined to build his business from the city, putting down roots and growing his production company here.

Now, after years of working on independent projects, Jack has taken his biggest leap yet with a brand-new Christmas film, Merry Christmas Aubrey Flint.
Set in Yorkshire, Merry Christmas Aubrey Flint follows Aubrey Flint, a reclusive model soldier painter with a lifelong hatred of Christmas, who is sentenced to community service at Willow Lodge - a retirement home on the brink of closure.
Roped into helping with a chaotic production of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, Aubrey clashes with its interesting set of residents...
And the cast is about as star-studded as it gets, featuring Richard E. Grant, John Bradley, Celia Imrie, Adjoa Andoh, Sophia Di Martino, Adrian Rawlins and Kiell Smith-Bynoe.

The heartwarming festive comedy will hit cinemas nationwide on Friday 6 November - a huge milestone for a Leeds-based director and production company, taking a homegrown Yorkshire story to audiences across the country.
You just can't beat a proper wholesome British Christmas film, so you can best believe we'll be watching in the cinema, popcorn in hand.
