Hythe Beach

Hythe is surrounded by countryside and edged by the sea, so what more could you want from an afternoon trip to the coast? Well, it has plenty of beauty and more besides, with a town of winding streets to wander down and independent shops to leaf through. But don’t forget the beach, because this long stretch of sloping shingle provides glorious uninterrupted views and a fantastic place to set down your towel.

Nearby you’ll have the choice of a selection of walks to take in that rolling countryside with the Saltwood Saunter and Tolsford Trek from beautiful Brockhill Country Park. Or bring your bike and saddle up to ride the length of the Royal Military Canal, a military monument that packs a surprising amount of flora and fauna.
