Summer seaside events
Festivals, days out and a whole lot more awaits
From sandy beaches for family days out and romantic walks, to wild watersports and foodie adventures for quality time with friends, there are so many good reasons to get out and discover new favourite places this summer.
Why not head to the north Kent coastal towns of Whitstable, Margate, Broadstairs and Ramsgate – great destinations that blend classic seaside pleasures with old town lanes, busy with vintage boutiques and quirky cafes. Then there are the cultural quarters of Folkestone, Hastings and St Leonards-on-Sea on the south Kent and East Sussex coast. Here you’ll find great shopping, galleries, eating, drinking and live entertainment plus don’t miss the country town charm of Faversham, home to the Shepherd Neame Brewery and a perfect starting point for exploring the North Downs. For coastal heritage the historic towns of Dover and Deal have their harbours, castles and towers for you to explore.
