NEW: The Whitstable to Water-Edge Wander to Sandy Solace near Margate

DESCRIPTION
Get ready for a, refreshing linear coastal hike tracking the stunning North Kent shoreline. We will be following the flat, panoramic King Charles III England Coast Path, starting in vibrant Whitstable and ending at the golden shores of Birchington-on-Sea.
This hike transitions beautifully from the iconic pebbles and beach huts of Whitstable, past the dramatic ruins of Reculver Towers, and finishes at Minnis Bay, Margate —a sandy paradise perfect for a well-deserved post-walk swim, a cold drink, and a great meal.
