Great little bay to just sit and watch the world go by , plenty of activity on the water watching the shipping, planes overhead and trains somewhere under the sea! car park next to sea ,refreshments on hand and the required facilities, take your chair with you and sit and enjoy this lovely little bay, but drive carefully the road down is tricky.

Bored with lockdown I decided to take a short drive to Dover to get my daily exercise . Parking was easy and I managed to find a free parking space . Had a leisurely walk in the sunshine along the seafront . Lots of families enjoying the pebble beach , picnics, swimming etc , all nicely distanced and safe . Got a lovely takeaway coffee from the hotel . Took a walk out along the harbour walk to see the cruise ships . Dover is having lots of regeneration, lots of buildings being updated . Lovely paved walkway and shelters all along the seafront. Beautiful marina also being built. Thank you Dover for lifting my spirits during the Coronavirus.
