Description
At the famous White Cliffs of Dover, you can enjoy walks along the coastal path to the South Foreland Lighthouse, with far-reaching views of the French coast run by the National Trust. The cliffs were used for defence in both World Wars. You can see reminders of this past at the Fan Bay Deep Shelter, a complex of Second World War tunnels hidden within the chalk. You can pick up a free walking map, or download it on the website. There is also a play area.
