Dies ist ein typisch englisches Seebad Mut einer schönen alten Promenade und einer großen Anzahl von blühenden Blumenbeeten. Eine kurze Seebrücke lädt für einen Spaziergang ein, an deren Ende eine Konzertbühne für größere Musikveranstaltungen aufgebaut ist. Wie in allen englischen Seeorten üblich, reihen sich entlang der Promenade mehrere Spielhallen aneinander. Innerörtlich wirkt der Ort etwas einfach und zeigt keinerlei Besonderheiten, eben ein typisches englisches Straßenbild.
First time to Herne Bay, loved the pier and the attractions. Will return again soon.
Lovely things to look at-full crab kit for a tenner, including food, net and line 👍the free standing toilets smelt DISGUSTING! The beach was lovely and clean
Not a bad place to visit only problem was the parking most machines are not working. Added the ap which was also a nightmare we paid cash machines are quite off-putting but once parked a nice walk along the bay.
Saw an incredible sunset here. 32 years I've been alive and I've never seen a sunset before...
lovely little pier good selection of gift huts and you can even get married lovely to see families crabbing
We had a lovely visit. So much to see and do plus lots of lovely places to grab a bite to eat. Wasn't too busy and had a really nice atmosphere. Highly recommend a visit!
Lovely pier. Little shops along the side, which is quaint and a few rides at the end. Shame it doesn't stretch a far as the old pier but quaint.
Cute little pier with some independent retailers, fair ground rides, and reasonably priced food and drinks.
Pier was open but the huts on the pier were not open. Always nice to stroll along a pier. It's well maintained with plenty of seats.
Small but perfectly formed. The little retail village was a pleasant surprise. There's a stage at the end of the pier with a program of artists advertised
The pier was very nice, with different stalls to look at, and the coffee was good at a very good pruce
Quaint little pier with lots of beach hut type stalls lining the stretch before you find a pavilion of food and drink stalls. There is also a few rides for smaller children. Fabulous views.
Went to the bagel shack and had a salt beef bagel and it was delicious. Herne bay needs this. It was so good I went back for a Nutella 1. I will definitely be back the tea and hot chocolate was even good!
Try the fish and chips on the pier, always good and a little cheaper than others in the area
Had a quick stop on our way to Broadstairs lots of great little shops to look at
The beach is truly stunning, featuring clean, well-maintained gravel sand, and the water is quite clear with a sandy bottom. It's definitely a must-visit during the summer months. Conveniently, there is nearby parking available at no charge for up to four hours currently. The surrounding scenery is breathtaking. The only downside was that the pier was disappointing as it was closed and not available for children's activities, despite visiting on three different occasions. However, I would still suggest families visit this beach for its beauty and the wonderful walking experience it offers.
Beautiful day spent in the sun lovely place too visit
Ein wunderschöner Ort um im Januar die Seele baumeln zu lassen. Es war zwar kaum was auf, aber dafür Ruhe und Sonnenschein 😉
Freezing cold when we went in the Winter, but still some nice shops set up, friendly people and a lovely crepe with a nice view!
Прекрасно и приятно място за разходка, има къде да поседнеш или пък да хапнеш, ако огладнееш. Има прекрасни магазинчета по крайбрежната алея и уникален английски чай!
