Avoid the Sunday queue at the Whitstable Oyster Company restaurant on the beach: overpriced, oversold, and you can see the same view from a bench with a bag of chips.

Best beaches near London 2026 — 8 worth the train
London's closest beach isn't the best. Eight beaches I'd go back to — Camber, Wittering, Broadstairs, Whitstable — four to skip, with 2026 train times.
