Pegwell Bay Country Park

Pegwell Bay Country Park With stunning views, a play area, picnic area and mobile refreshments make this a great day out for all the family. The park is on a former landfill site.

Pegwell Bay was a popular destination for Victorian holiday-makers, fossil hunters and rock poolers. In the 19th Century, a pleasure pier was built in an effort to establish a seaside resort to rival nearby Ramsgate. This was not a success, however, and it was dismantled before the end of the century. After the site closed, the area was capped and landscaped and was re-opened as a picnic site by K

ent County Council in 1983. The park acts as the entrance to a nature reserve and the rare flora and fauna here make this an area of national importance. This particular stretch of windswept coastline includes chalk cliffs, mud flats, saltmarsh and sand dunes, and is an important habitat for bird species.

Please help protect our Country Parks

During this warm, dry weather, the risk of fires is much higher. Fires and barbecues are not permitted in any Kent Country Park.

Even a small flame or disposable barbecue can cause serious damage to grassland, woodland and wildlife.

So if you’re planning a visit, please leave barbecues, campfires and any other naked flames at home.

Thanks for helping us protect these special places for everyone to enjoy
