Season: autumn
Impressive chalk sea stacks greet you on arrival at Botany Bay. The beach here is the most northern of a cluster around well-to-do Broadstairs. The strand is mostly sand with some shingle. Swimming is safe, featuring clean bathing water and a seasonal lifeguard service. At low tide you can enjoy rockpooling. Just to the west is the artists’ enclave of Margate, so this area has a wide variety of visitor attractions.
