Wikipedia description:
Whitley Bay is a seaside town in the North Tyneside borough in Tyne and Wear, England. It was formerly governed as part of Northumberland and has been part of Tyne and Wear since 1974. It is part of the wider Tyneside built-up area, being around 10 miles (16 km) northeast of Newcastle upon Tyne city centre. Two notable landmarks are the Spanish City (a domed building on the seafront) and St Mary's Lighthouse, the latter on a small island near the town.
