Whitstable Harbour

Beautiful, Oysters and stout for lunch then a lovely walk along the front. Whitstable Town is also full of lovely independent shops. A great day out!

Nice little spot for a visit on a good weather day. Plenty of eateries, little shops etc...even If perhaps it's aquired a slight air of pretentiousness these days.

We travelled down to Whitstable Harbour by train with all the new restrictions (Covid-19) in place with masks on. The weather was still good at the end of September. Walked from the station down to the Harbour. 15 minutes or so. On the day we went the harbour market was open with stalls (huts) selling bits and bobs. We had a bit of lunch with some crab sandwiches very tasty with drinks reasonable price. We walked around the front past the fish sheds and bars and restaurants. The life boat station was cleaning down the rigid dinghy lifeboat. Harbour street has some diverse shops, and bars and restaurants. I believe the Actor Peter Cushing lived in Whitstable. There are some fishermen’s cottages for rent on the front. The high street has all the normal shops.Nice afternoon out, down by the seaside. We walked back to the station to get the train home.

Great place to stop off for a day out or an afternoon ! Great section of food here - walks - pubs - boat trips and more - some nice little sheds with crafts and local shops … a great place to come to …

One of my favourite parts of Whitstable where you can just hang around and watch the fishing boats, have some quality seafood or simply wander around the lovely outdoor market. There is a good variety of stalls here from local craftspeople (we picked up a lovely piece of glasswork) and places to eat and drink. Plenty of parking nearby but do what we did and walk there from the village to get to full impact. You can even carry on past and walk up to Tankerton with its long beaches and quaint beach huts.

Nice and busy harbour on a lovely sunny day. Lots of stalls to explore. We found it difficult to get into a restaurant due to covid restrictions. Most places were booked up.

Beautiful place but completely over run with Dog walkers.Can't eat your food in peace without dogs yapping around your feet.

A few places for lunch and dinner along with craft shops. Take some time to have a bite to eat and watch the fishing boats return with their latest haul. We saw large bags of fresh whelks. There are a few fishmongers with beautifully fresh fish and seafood. Yum yum yum.

Beautiful working harbour with lots of quirky shops. Pete's Plaice does the most amazing fish and chips..... And the oysters were yummy

Whitstable itself is a rather modestly attractive beach hovel (I wouldn't call it a town - if you want a more bourgeois" atmosphere on the Kent coast
