Things To See & Do

The beach is nicer at the cliff’s end, and at low tide, you can explore the rock pools and beachcombing under the cliffs.
The beach is well known to swimmers as swimming the Channel from Shakespeare Beach is the shortest distance between the UK and France.

The beach has no facilities or easy parking. You can park at Samphire Hoe to the west and take the coast path or find a space on the streets where you then have walkways under the A20 and a bridge over the railway.
