Walpole Bay, Margate is ideal for investigating fascinating rock and tidal pools. This long bay has a sandy beach, promenade and tidal pool, where there is a small area of beach at high tide. If the tide catches you out there are on-land activity with a tennis court, cafe and indoor bowls nearby.
The walks, swimming in the tidal pool, the sauna all amazing. Good vibes. Occasionally ruined by your typical English lout who wants to ruin it for everyone. The council plans for the future are promising. Palm Bay next door is a bit more spacious if it gets busy in high season.
One of the good things about being local is you know the quiet beachs this was a good one and used mainly by the local, while the Tourist used the main ones Now all the tourists how found this one and it packed
Terrible smell, the worst beach I have seen in the UK so far.
I loved this tidal pool. I walked along the sand for 35 minutes to get there, and it was fantastic. I felt safe as a woman swimming there at the back, having met another great woman also going for her swim.1.5hrs from London on High Speed HS1. Felt so down as thought 1.5hrs is too long but forgot all about it once I arrived, and literally am floating back on the train very completely happy. Got a Greek takeaway and had it on the beach opposite town centre with music playing across the harbour from the pubs they got there along a Pier or something. The best day of my summer out on my own.
We preferred to go to the beach, towards the city center, because the road through the streets was very ugly and depressing. The seafront, as a landscape, is beautiful, and the chalk cliff is interesting, but there are heaps of algae with an unbearable smell.
