BROADSTAIRS in Thanet, Kent is a seaside holiday town on the South East coast between Ramsgate and Margate. It has seven amazing beaches, amusement arcades, hotels, guesthouses, B&B's and great shopping in the town centre. We visit to see all the things to do in Broaadstairs.
Broadstairs, a picturesque coastal town nestled on the Isle of Thanet in Kent, offers a captivating blend of seaside charm, literary heritage, and family-friendly attractions. Its seven sandy beaches, each with its own unique character, provide endless opportunities for relaxation and recreation. Viking Bay, the town's bustling heart, beckons with its lively atmosphere, amusement rides, and traditional seaside charm. For those seeking a more tranquil escape, Botany Bay's iconic chalk stacks offer a stunning backdrop for leisurely strolls.
A visit to Broadstairs is incomplete without immersing oneself in the world of Charles Dickens, who found inspiration in the town's idyllic setting. The Dickens House Museum, his former residence, offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of the literary giant. Beyond the literary allure, Broadstairs invites exploration with its scenic clifftop walks that meander along the dramatic coastline, providing panoramic views at every turn.
St Peter's Village, a short distance from the main town, transports visitors to a bygone era with its quaint cottages and award-winning costumed heritage tours. For a taste of Victorian ingenuity, a visit to the Crampton Tower Museum is a must. The town's shopping scene is equally enchanting, with a delightful array of independent boutiques offering unique treasures. A diverse culinary landscape caters to every palate, from traditional fish and chips to international cuisine.
Broadstairs' appeal lies in its ability to offer something for everyone. Whether you seek relaxation on the sandy shores, cultural enrichment through its literary connections, or a taste of history, the town delivers. Its family-friendly atmosphere, combined with the opportunity to explore the stunning Kent coastline, makes it an ideal destination for a memorable holiday.
Broadstairs is more than just a seaside resort; it's an experience that lingers in the memory long after departure.

Nice to see our town on your walk, we must have missed you by a few hours! The arcade and morelli's ice cream parlour you passed were used for the recent dua lipa o2 advert. Funny seeing places you walk past and realize you're never visited in 25 years living here. Soon folk week, when us locals hibernate! Earplugs essential !!

ha ha I bet! Thank you so much for the info on Dua Lipa - didn't know that! Was hoping to see Matthew Steeples in the Magnet on my visit too but he wasn't there when. I went in What a lovely town - really loved staying there at the Yarrow Hotel

I do enjoy your walks very much + thank you… When Ted Heath was British Tory PM from 1970-74 + lived in Broadstairs, he always spoke so fondly about it. Back then, I was but a young Brighton girl! Since then It’s always been on my To Do list to visit, based on his description of the place. So I’m very grateful for your tour as I’m now a Disabled old lady + it would be quite unsuitable for me at all…so thank you again, I’ve had a really nice time being with you…+ I look forward to many more of your tours! 🙋‍♀️😁💕

You might want to read the memoir of Emma Picken about vacationing with Dickens' family in Broadstairs, presumably in 1841 or 1842. It can be found in The Englishwoman's Domestic Magazine, 1868-1872, No. 78, Vol. 10, June 1871, page 336.

Well first of all the town has a real issue with insecure posing blokes driving through the town revving engines as loudly as possible I had a few encounters with aggressive people too, passing cars with women giving middle fingers etc Lots of other nightlife madness too that you'd expect with young un's boozing etc Wasn't something I really want to experience again!

3:11 Is that a restaurant ???.. When I lived in Broadstairs up til 2001 that corner shop used to be CROOKo ROOKS otherwise known as J.C.ROOKS the Butchers and Bakers. Used to go in there for the best sausage roll EVER and I mean EVER !!! Plus... COSTA Coffee used to be Barclays bank.. So much has changed yet the change looks clean and tidy. Yobs took over the town and threatened foreign students while I lived there. Hope the yobs there have subsided. Yet the Dolphin pub was always the center of violence in the town due to shady owners and shady people. Very DICKHEADIAN instead of DICKENSIAN as a town in the evenings.
