The beach is mostly shingle with wooden groynes giving way to sandy mudflats at low tide and is a popular bathing area for families in the summer holidays.
During the holiday season the bandstand, on Central Parade between Herne Bay Pier and Neptunes Arm, has traditional seaside entertainment including Brass Bands, tea dances and children’s entertainers such as Punch and Judy.
Beach huts can be found to the western end of the beach towards Hampton pier.
