Romantics and traditionalists in search of British seaside magic will find all their expectations met in Herne Bay.

Brightly coloured beach huts offer access to all the life of the water's edge and beyond. Sporting enthusiasts including rowers, yachtsmen and jet ski riders pursue their passion in Herne Bay's waters, adding a thrilling dimension to natural marine qualities.

In Herne Bay, the sea is a constant. And in the summer months its beauty is enhanced by the gardens that nestle the seafront, bringing floral colour for admiring visitors who pass the clock tower and bandstand.

In recent years, the bandstand has become a venue for those who enjoy café culture, and throughout the year it is a focal point for all who enjoy the pleasure of musical events and entertainment.

The bandstand is also the base for the town's visitor information centre with its friendly and informative staff who give added local insight to your Herne Bay experience.

All seaside towns have events that celebrate their identity and Herne Bay is no exception. In balmy August, the Herne Bay Festival, with its March of the Giants parade, music programme and fireworks is a highlight on the calendar. For full details please visit www.hernebayfestival.co.uk
