Margate Beach
8 Sarina Delgado

This beach is a great spot for families to spend time together. The kids had a blast playing in the soft sand and there are plenty of options for dining and drinking. However, the downside is the toilets which are consistently dirty and unpleasant. Additionally, the beach is always crowded.

Ramsgate beach West
10 Soren Kael.

This particular beach in England is renowned for its pristine and inviting sand, making it a top contender for the best beaches in the area. Its soft grains and picturesque scenery make it an ideal destination for beach-goers seeking a serene and tranquil environment.

Deal Castle beach
6 Lila Delgado Cruz

The pebble beach is absolutely delightful and perfect for a leisurely stroll. However, the waves are a bit too intense and the water is quite deep, which makes it less than ideal for swimming. Therefore, I would recommend exploring the beach on foot and enjoying the stunning scenery instead of taking a dip in the water.

Walpole Tidal Pool
10 Ezra Stone

The tide pool is beautiful, there is free parking, and the view is amazing! 🏊‍♀️

Ramsgate beach East
8 Kalin Petrov

When visiting this beach, it's important to keep track of the tide schedule as the majority of the sand is submerged during high tide. However, the promenade remains accessible during this time, and visitors can still make their way to Dumpton Sands if they time it right. The walk back from Dumpton through the park is particularly enjoyable. Keep in mind that this is a popular spot for dog owners, so if you're not a fan of furry friends running free, you may want to consider another beach. Restrooms and refreshments are only available at Dumpton.

Walmer beach
10 Avery Parker

This beach is an incredible spot to enjoy the British summer sun. When we visited, there was plenty of parking available. It was the perfect outing for my family, including our two toddlers, dog, husband, and myself. We all enjoyed soaking up the sun and meeting the friendly locals who didn't seem to mind our overly friendly dog. I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a great day out, and there are toilet facilities available on site.
