Herne Bay
Herne Bay lies on the north Kent coast nine miles north of Canterbury. With a population of around 30,000, Herne Bay developed as a seaside resort in Victorian times. Still a popular holiday resort, with its seven miles of shingle beach, popular with bathers, anglers and sailors, Herne Bay has become an important residential area, with convenient commuter links to London.
