There's much more to Hull than cheep booze, however, with three beaches nearby.
The nearest of those is Tunstall beach, which is described as "a lesser used sandy beach", with "a huge amount of space so it never feels busy, even in the summer months" by .
Elsewhere, there's Mappleton Beach and Hornsea Beach, with the former a sand and shingle beach with plenty of space for families to enjoy.
The latter is a blue flag beach near the UK's best chippy, Whitehead's Fish & Chips.
The takeaway took top spot at this year's National Fish & Chip Awards.
Fish can't only be eaten in Hull however, with one of the country's best aquariums, a great place to observe them.
The attraction is listed as the top thing to do on Hull's TripAdvisor list and has won plenty of awards over the last 15 years.
It describes itself as "one of the most spectacular aquariums in the world" and is home to sharks, turtles, penguins and the UK's only Green sawfish.
One TripAdvisor reviewer wrote: "To see so many underwater and land species was spectacular. Went as a couple but was amazing for children of all ages."
The aquarium can be found in a "dramatic" building overlooking the Humber estuary, but it's certainly not the most famous landmark over the river.
That title belongs to the Humber bridge, which holds the record as the longest single span suspension bridge that can be walked or cycled over in the world.
Elsewhere in the city there's the Streetlife Museum of Transport, a free exhibit that transports visitors to the 1940s with trams and a carriage ride.
The museum can be found on the cobbled streets of the Old Town and along with the East Riding Museum of Archaeology, home to a life-size woolly mammoth.
Hull Minster is also high on the list of tourist attractions and is the largest parish church in England by floor area.
It contains what is widely acknowledged to be some of "the finest medieval brick-work in the country," according to.
A night in Hull can be found from £39 for two. Camping options in nearby Tunstall start from around £13 per night.
