Things to do | Where to Eat

Ramsgate is one of three villages that make up the Isle of Thanet.  Whether you want to eat at an award winning Thai restaurant such as The Surin , venture on an exhilarating sea safari from Ramsgate Harbour or simply laze around on a golden blue flag award beach then Ramsgate is for you. A local cinema, leisure centre, museums, art galleries, a 27 mile Viking Coastal Trail, churches and fabulous shopping opportunities makes pretty Ramsgate one of the most diverse holiday destinations you could choose. Ramsgate Harbour has an annual agenda including a Powerboat Grand Prix!

Easy connections to Europe via the nearby Channel Tunnel make this even more exciting and you can take a daily ferry to Belgium! Don't forget to visit beautiful Canterbury or the medieval village of Sandwich either! Charles Dickens wrote many of his works in the next door village of Broadstairs whilst Margate is in the process of creating one of Britain's most impressive art centres named after JMW Turner who chose Thanet to paint many of his famous works.

Ramsgate and the Isle of Thanet are a perfect example of why British Seaside towns are becoming cool again, and at only 90 minutes drive from London, or an easy train ride, why not come and see for yourself!
