Advantages: Healthy Air, Nice Promenade

Disadvantages: Not much night life

With summer with us and perhaps you are looking for a trditional seaside resort not too far from London..have you thought about a visit to Herne Bay ?

My late Grandmother lived in Herne Bay and I know the town on the North Kent coastline well. I have been impressed by the recent changes that have taken place.

Just about 60 miles from London,Herne Bay,was a big favourite with the Victorians who founded the place and went there to beathe in the health-giving air or dip in the invigourating waters. After its glory period, Herne Bay went into a slow decline but just recently things have picked-up.

Its sweeping promenade has been greatly improved and the seafront gardens are a delight.Best of all the formerly rather dillapidated bandstand has been restored and is now a nice place to spend an hour or two. There is a pleasant cafe/bar and concerts and musical performances are once again held there.

The beaches are not too bad,. Central Beach has actually been given an award by the Tidy Britain Group and nearby Reculver secured a Rural Beach flag in 2001.

There are some other attractions beside the sea. Check out the Sports Centre, the Pier Pavillion, the King's Hall and the Kavanagh Cinema for entertainment. Herne Bay has a range of shops whilst nearby Herne is home to a traditional smock windmill.You can visit a Roman Fort at Reculver and there are nice walks from Bishopstone.

Isnt it about time you visited Herne Bay ?
