Things To Do

Cycle along streets that kings once walked upon, past a Royal harbour that helped to feed a nation, up onto cliff tops that hug one of the busiest shipping channels in the world, through some of Kent’s most beautiful and abundant countryside…

If you think that you’ve already enjoyed the best that kayaking can offer in Kent, then think again. Get on board with Active Ramsgate’s sea kayak trails. Think about the exhilaration that comes with setting yourself free on the water.

Experience the freedom and exhilaration of getting out to sea with one of Ramsgate’s boat operators and get close-up and personal with a raft of inquisitive seals and magnificent birdlife.

Whether you want to chill out by yourself, enjoy a fun day out with the family, go racing with a friend or benefit from some hard core upper-body training, paddleboarding will keep you on your toes.

Download the app, lock onto the GPS and you’ll already be on your way to uncovering much more than hidden treasure, because every geocache on the Ramsgate coast reveals some of the best locations (and best-kept secrets) on the south coast.

If you like to keep your feet firmly on the ground start with a round of golf or hit a few balls down at the golf range, finished off with a round or two in the 19th hole of course!

It’s time to step out and experience Active Ramsgate’s walking trails. Each trail is themed and bursting with fun things – in amazing places – to make the most of everything our beautiful coastline has to offer.

We are currently developing small group triathlon taster experiences for triathlon newbies as part of a successful bid by Active Ramsgate to Visit Kent for the EXPERIENCE Development Programme, funded by Interreg.

Serve, smash, return, miss! Anyone who enjoys playing pickleball (‘what?’ we hear you say) or tennis knows that it isn’t simply about the winning (although winning definitely helps), it’s about losing yourself in the moment and enjoying every second of it.

The choice of ways and places you can have fun in the sea is never ending. Why not take the plunge and go scuba diving! It’s a totally different way to experience the beautiful Ramsgate coastal waters.

Trapped by routine? Feel like life is being lived by everyone except you? Desperate to break free? Then pick up your board and kite, throw caution to the wind and launch yourself into one of the most exhilarating watersports available anywhere.

Every year migrating birds from around the world make the hazardous journey across oceans to take advantage of the temperate Ramsgate climate. It doesn’t matter if you’re a practiced twitcher, professional ornithologist, keen amateur or a total fledgling birder.
