Water-based activities such as wild swimming, paddleboarding or simply gazing out to sea can do wonders for our well-being.

Stand up paddleboarding (SUP) is the fastest-growing water sport. The Herne Bay Paddle Co offers lessons and rental boards.

Swim right into the golden hour from Herne Bay beach and enjoy the mental and physical benefits of wild swimming which you chase the sun as it sets across the bay.

We've got fresh air, seascapes and countryside scenes for you!

Itinerary inspiration: Head to Long Rock

Long Rock is an internationally important coastal area between Whitstable and Herne Bay and a Site of Special Scientific Interest.

Carefully cultivation and protection of the area have allowed water vole, Brent geese, and a variety of rare plants to thrive here, and the route is linked to the Oyster Bay Trail and Viking Coastal Trail. Perfect for a quiet stroll or a long bike ride.

Check out our guide for walks across the whole district 👇

Hunker down in Herne Bay with a cosy pub this weekend!

Herne Bay is the perfect spot for exploring the coast and countryside – or for just snuggling in front of the fire.

Head to Grade II listed 14th century pub The Ship Inn for unbeatable sea views, or Kent Pub of the Year winner The Four Fathoms for historic character and contemporary comfort.

The Prince of Wales, Hoath, is well placed for walkers as the starting – and end – point for magnificent circular walking routes through the surrounding Canterbury woodland and countryside.

And The Rising Sun in Stourmouth is a stunning country pub with rooms and a great fireside setting.

So grab your walking boots this weekend and take your pick of where to enjoy that post-walk warm up ☺️
