On arrival park your car in the hill top garage and
then meander down the cobblestone paths past the
pond and down to the harbour.

There you can enjoy some of the best eating and
drinking in East Yorkshire.
Or maybe pop into the Pirate Museum and learn
about the dastardly deeds of Carlos the Skull splitter.

Play facilities for kids mean they're never bored, even
make a sand castle on our golden beach.
At Bardon Pond there's always plenty to see and do.

History
Established by pirate and smugglers in the early 18th century
this village has earned its living from the sea.
Once a tiny hamlet and now a bustling village with over 500
inhabitants, Bardon Pond is best known for its most celebrated
resident the infamous pirate Charles Speckthorpe better known
as Carlos the Skull splitter.
