Metal Detecting

Hi me and 4 friends are planning a little road trip to Scarborough next weekend for a day out detecting:-) any info or tips on good spots in the area would be a huge help as would like to av best chance at finding some thing just to top a gr8 day out off with friends:-)

Fileylad or Bainsey will probably be best to answer this...they are local I think. definetly read some of their posts where it mentioned Scarborough

A few of the Bridlington lads have been digging scarborough last week, One had a couple bits of silver and the usual coins, The tides have been bad the last couple days so we will have a better idea later in the week. But sand is slowly moving back onto the east coast beachs, its been a few weeks since any rough weather

Thanks and hopefully some of the local guys who detect the beach will see this article and leave a message also:-) we will be going a week on Sunday that's weather and tide times dependent mind you as will be traveling up early so will need a early low tide to av the best day out and chance of lots detecting..and would be nice to av the chance to meet some of the ppl from this site who are detecting so if any you lot are up that way week on Sunday let me no

Cheers rich :-)

Hi all,
I had 5 hours tonight on Scarborough beach, not a lot to show but enjoyable. There were a local lad called Mike i met, but wether he found anything i don't know he did not stay long after i left him.The sea has fetched some banks of sand in but there's still enough to go at.There is plenty of trash since they had there bonfire nails,screws,bolts,sparkler wire and melted alloy,however don't let this put you off.
Good luck and enjoy it.
