BOATING IN KENT
The coast line of Kent from Gravesend to East Sussex and Rye Harbour is popular with visitors who enjoy the resorts of Sheerness, Whitstable, Margate, Deal, Folkestone, Hythe and many of the smaller coves and bays, within the county.
Boating enthusiasts with their yachts and motor craft are attracted to the harbours and marinas of Ramsgate and Dover.
The Kent coast and the navigable rivers are enjoyed by many from the very young with their first dinghy to families with luxury cruisers. The sea and marine life is an important part of Kent's history and the future, much will be explored within Afloattv's programming over the coming months.
