Visit Abbot’s Cliff
Abbot’s Cliff between Folkestone and Dover is a remote warren with shingle beach with secluded spots to sunbathe. Popular with naturists the beach is accessed from Samphire Hoe Country Park and ‘The Warren’ Country Park.
Just to the West of Samphire Hoe Country Park visitors can reach the beach at low tide or walk along the sea wall from the Eastern Pleasure Beach off Wear Bay Road, Folkestone.
The imposing Chalk cliffs dominate, but beware of falling chalk. It is not advisable to sit directly underneath.
