Located at Margate's quieter end, this tidal pool paradise transforms at low tide into a natural wonderland of rockpools teeming with marine life, making it exceptionally popular with families and anyone interested in coastal ecology. The bay's unique character comes from its combination of sandy beach and extensive rocky ledges that create sheltered pools perfect for safe paddling and marine discovery, while the surrounding cliffs provide shelter and create a more intimate atmosphere than Margate's busier central sands.
