Prepare yourself for a day at the coast, a day in the country and a day at the shops, as well as tales of smugglers, explorers and wild adventure! Master seafarer Captain James Cook was born in Middlesbrough in 1728. You can learn about his adventures at his birthplace museum in Stewart Park, and visit a full-size replica of HM Bark Endeavour - the ship in which he sailed the South Seas - at nearby Stockton.

At Hartlepool Maritime Experience, an 18th century seaport recreates life at the time of the Battle of Trafalgar. Step aboard HMS Trincomalee, Britain's oldest warship still afloat - you'll wonder how 200 men lived in such a small space! For the darker exploits of maritime life, visit Saltburn Smugglers Heritage Centre - if you dare! There are golden sands at Redcar and Saltburn-by-the-Sea (take a ride on Saltburn's Victorian cliff lift, the only water-balanced one in Britain), while Boulby Cliffs rise almost 700 feet, the highest on England's East Coast.

Darlington Railway Centre and Museum houses Stephenson's iconic Locomotion No.1 and you can try white water rafting at Teesside White Water Course - beginners are welcome and very safe! Or get away from it all amidst lush green fields and meandering streams - climb Roseberry Topping for fabulous views of Tees Valley Need any excuse to dress to impress? Hit the boutiques of Yarm and take in a show at Darlington's Civic Theatre or live music on a summer evening at the National Trust's Ormesby Hall.
