No it's not an official naturist beach (the only official naturist beach in Kent is in Shellness near Leysdown) but it is perfectly legal to be nude there, as with anywhere else in England unless there's specific local by-laws preventing people from doing so (and there's none anywhere in Thanet). What IS illegal is to "deliberately cause offence" by being naked, so it's all a very grey area. <br /><br />As for "doggers" or any other anti-social behavior, if the beach became officially recognised then people wouldn't hesitate to call the police.

Won't it attract doggers? The toilets are riddled with peepholes whenever I empty my bowels.

And how is that a first for Kent? Sounds like bureaucratic desperation. Or another cockup like not signing the Dreamland papers and wasting another year.<br /><br />And working with local businesses? They've done stuff all. A mention on the tourist website, and funding Infratil or TransEuropa on the quiet.<br /><br />Any Dutch visitors been seen from KLM etc?
