We have two excellent seaside towns in the Canterbury district. Those in search of traditional seaside magic will find it here in Herne Bay. Beautiful beaches and stunning Victorian architecture combine to form the perfect backdrop to create stunning holiday memories. Brightly coloured beach huts reflect the great character of this seaside town. Sporting enthusiasts including rowers, yachtsmen and jet ski riders pursue their passion in Herne Bay's waters, adding a thrilling dimension to natural marine qualities.

Whitstable's traditional charms, strong arts culture and rich maritime history sit easily with its renaissane. Along the coast at Tankerton, grassy slopes dip to meet the sea. Many roads in Whitstable will lead you to the sea. Whether you take the main route through the town or enjoy haphazard progress through quiet lanes and alleyways with eccentric names such as Squeeze Gut Alley, you'll end up at the harbour.

Whichever one takes your fancy is awaiting your visit!
