Port Dover

Dover in detail

Widely known by most for its Dover to Calais ferry and now Channel Tunnel terminal, Dover is often visited but rarely truly enjoyed. This is a shame, because the county of Kent is one of Britain’s most stunning and a stopover in Dover puts some of its most picturesque landscapes are right on your doorstep.

Of course, English seasides are a firm favourite with residents and tourists alike. Dover’s seaside scenes are particularly awe-inspiring with the town’s infamous white cliffs as a backdrop. It may not quite be a cosy Caribbean bay but take the plunge and you can enjoy as many water sports as you could wish for. Step a few paces inland and you’ll find the region has a lot else to offer as well; Kent, often called the Garden of England, is rich with vineyards, museums and incredible National Trust properties that you’ll happily spend hours and hours exploring.
