More welcoming than jaded big sis Margate and livelier than twee little neighbour Broadstairs, Ramsgate is the kind of varied and often quirky resort town that can appeal to all ages. While families and surfers still splash about along the Blue Flag beach, cosmopolitan bars and easygoing street cafés line the marina and seafront promenade, and a different breed of cultural visitor is drawn to the town’s rich maritime history and neo-Gothic architecture. And picturesquely sheltered below the town’s handsomely arched harbour walls is a forest of rigging that creaks and whistles in the sea breeze.
On a small alleyway off Leopold St, the tourist office (583333; www.tourism.thanet.gov.uk; 17 Albert Ct; 9.15am-4.15pm Mon-Fri) has information and a self-guided walking map of the areas smugglers’ caves.
