St Margaret's Beach Swimming Forecast
St. Margaret's at Cliffe · United Kingdom
St Margaret's Beach scores 76/100 for swimming today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces SE. A steeply sloping shingle cove beneath chalk cliffs at one of Britain's closest points to France, known as a Channel swimming departure point and a sheltered swimming spot. Rocky, shell-covered substrate and rock pools are exposed at low tide. The cliffs create wind shadow, so kitesurfing is rare and windsurfing is expert-only, with risk of being washed onto cliff-base rocks.
