Stretching for miles along the north Kent coast, Herne Bay's expansive sandy beach is anchored by Victorian seafront gardens and a charming pier that extends far into the Thames Estuary. The town maintains a delightfully old-fashioned seaside atmosphere with traditional beach huts, amusement arcades, and fish and chip shops, while the beach itself offers excellent conditions for sailing, windsurfing, and long contemplative walks with views across to the Thames islands and Essex coastline.
