Epple Bay

Visit Epple Bay

Epple Bay is a small beach on the North Kent coast. Close to Birchington and Margate, this beach follows the concrete sea defence below the cliffs.

Epple Bay is suitable for swimming and bathing, although there are no lifeguard services available.

At low tide, a significant area of rocks and sand is exposed, revealing numerous rock pools that are perfect for exploration. However, as the tide rises, the beach can almost disappear.

Dogs are allowed on the beach year-round, making it a popular choice for locals.
