Hook up with the Thanet Coast Project for an educational event, or hike or cycle the Viking Coastal Trail - 32 miles (51.4km) of sandy beaches, spectacular cliffs and pretty villages. Or do what people have done for generations - create your own, timeless, free fun: go rockpooling, fly a kite, build a sandcastle or go crabbing. Check out this guide to Rock Pooling from the Thanet Coast Project to help identify your findings
Or come for one of our exciting seaside events. Broadstairs Water Gala is a feast of sand-fringed fun - ranging from a teddy bears' picnic, to live music and fireworks – whilst the Ramsgate Festival offers family fun from nautical games to opera on the beach.
Escape the hustle and bustle of daily life and let the beautiful Margate, Broadstairs and Ramsgate help you to release the tension, relax, unwind and breathe.
High-speed services mean the shores of Margate, Broadstairs and Ramsgate are less than two hours from London.
