Renowned for its fine natural harbor, the Town of Whitby is an attractive spot for families looking for the convenience and amenities of a big city along with the quiet and charm of a suburb. Headquartered in the Durham Region, the town has grown rapidly over the last few years and is home to many executive families who have discovered the community’s well-planned and executed neighbourhoods, its easy access to Toronto and the superb services that the town’s authorities ensure are available to every resident.

Named after the seaport town of Whitby, in Yorkshire, England, the town is steeped in history and is rich in culture. In fact, its main shopping area reflects the town’s past through the grand and beautiful Victorian buildings that house the over 400 stores, restaurants and businesses found along the street. Another enduring monument to Whitby’s past is the highly respected Trafalgar Castle private school for girls, which was founded in 1872 and built as an Elizabethan Castle. A weekly farmer’s market operates from May to October while newer shopping districts are being set up to accommodate the emerging areas of the town.
