Joss Bay

About

A surfer’s paradise, this popular 200-metre long bay is known as one of the best surfing beaches in Thanet.

The surf school on the beach hires boards and wet suits so you can take to the waves, along with running surfing and SUP lessons.

Joss Bay is perfect for a day at the beach with deck chair and lounger hire available, a beach shop and café on the sands and children’s rides.

Dog ban in place from 1st May until 30th September, dogs not permitted from 10am – 6pm.
