03 · Location

In context.

A long, open shingle beach on the English Channel backed by a flat promenade, with wooden groynes and fishing boats pulled up on shore. Primarily a calm-water swimming, fishing, and paddling beach; sailing, sea canoeing, and windsurfing are noted, but there's no surf break and no lifeguard cover. Goodwin Sands offshore can affect sea state. A seasonal dog ban covers one stretch. Entry/exit is easier at low to mid tide, given the tidal range.

Can 4Shor provide more accurate forecasts than my existing app?
