This small, secluded bay near Broadstairs offers a peaceful alternative to busier beaches, with its intimate scale and dramatic chalk cliff setting creating an almost Mediterranean atmosphere on sunny days. Access via steep paths adds to the sense of discovery, while the bay's sheltered aspect and interesting rock formations make it popular with photographers, artists, and anyone seeking a more contemplative beach experience away from crowds and commercial development. It is also worth noting that the beach at Stone Bay almost disappears on the high tide, so be sure to check the tide times.
