Margate Beach Swimming Forecast
Margate · United Kingdom
Margate Beach scores 77/100 for swimming today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces N. A wide, flat, sandy town beach with shallow water extending far from shore and a tidal pool at the western end, exposed at low water. Surf rarely develops, so it suits swimming, paddleboarding and, outside summer crowds, kitesurfing by experienced riders; jet skis may not launch here. RNLI lifeguards patrol daily 10:00-18:00, late May to early September. Dogs are banned 1 May-30 September; the beach narrows considerably at high tide.
