This hidden gem offers stunning views of white cliffs and beautiful chalk stacks

One of our Kent's most photographed bays, Botany Bay is famous! This hidden gem offers stunning views of white cliffs and beautiful chalk stacks.

When the tide is out, Botany bay is a great location for fossil hunting and exploring rock pools. There is plenty of exposed sand to enjoy when the tide is in, but due to the bay's shape the ends are cut off at high tide.
