About

Whitstable is like no other town by the sea. Its traditional charms, rich maritime history and strong arts culture complements the modern town.

Part of the Canterbury District, Whitstable's main claim to fame is its oysters which remain an intrinsic part of this sea town's character and are celebrated every July at the Oyster Festival

Things to do in Whistable

Oysters and other delicacies from the sea can be enjoyed at the local restaurants and pubs or taken home from the fresh fish market at the harbour.

While in Whistable why not visit the town's famous Farmers Markets where most food is organic and all stalls are local from a 30 mile radius of the town.
