Taking a Holiday at Dover, Kent, England, United Kingdom

A holiday at the beach in Dover, Kent, England, United Kingdom is a fantastic opportunity to experience the beauty of the English coastline. Dover is best known for its iconic White Cliffs and rich history, including Dover Castle and Roman ruins. The town boasts several lovely beaches that offer stunning views of the cliffs, perfect for a relaxing getaway.

Beach Type

The beaches in Dover are mostly pebbly with some areas of coarse sand. The pebbles create a unique and picturesque landscape that is quintessentially British. While you might not find powdery white sand or colorful reefs like you would in tropical locations, there's still plenty to explore and enjoy on these shores.

The abundance of rocks and pebbles make for interesting snorkeling and diving experiences as well, as they attract a variety of fish and marine life. While you may not see vibrant coral reefs, you can still observe fascinating underwater ecosystems around the rocky shores.

Beach Activities

Some popular beach activities in Dover include:

Swimming: The water conditions are generally calm and safe for swimming at most Dover beaches. However, it's essential to check local signage and lifeguard advice before entering the water.
Fossil Hunting: Due to the geology of the area, it's common to find fossils along the shorelines, making it an ideal activity for families or anyone interested in paleontology.
Rock Pooling: Exploring rock pools is a delightful way to discover small marine creatures such as crabs, sea anemones, and various types of seaweed.
Hiking: There are several walking trails along the coastline that offer breathtaking views of both beach scenery and historical landmarks like Dover Castle.
Beachcombing: Walking along the shoreline searching for shells, sea glass or interesting stones can be a relaxing pastime.

Accommodations

There are no beach resorts directly on the beachfront in Dover. However, there are several hotels and guesthouses within walking distance of the beach, such as the Premier Inn Dover Central or the Churchill Guest House.

Areas to Stay In

Dover Town Centre: Staying in Dover's town centre offers easy access to shops, restaurants, and attractions like the Dover Museum. The town centre is also close to some of the beaches in the area.
St. Margaret's Bay: This picturesque village is located east of Dover and has a beautiful pebble beach with views of the White Cliffs. It offers a peaceful retreat from the bustling town centre while still being close enough for day trips.
Deal: A short drive northeast of Dover, this quaint seaside town has a wonderful beachfront promenade and plenty of local charm. Deal is an excellent option if you prefer staying in a more laid-back environment.
