Dumpton Gap

A quiet sandy bay under white chalk cliffs, listed by Visit Thanet among its get-away-from-it-all spots.

At low tide there are rock pools to explore and scattered fossils such as sea urchins in the chalk and flints on the foreshore.

It sits on the Thanet coast, which has the longest continuous stretch of coastal chalk in Britain, with a promenade and kiosk above the sand.
