Pegwell Bay is part of the Sandwich and Pegwell Bay National Nature Reserve, with a country park whose sea wall path looks out over saltmarsh and mudflats. Watch waders and wildfowl in autumn and winter, look for seals from the end of Stonelees and use the play and picnic areas. It suits families, dog walkers and birdwatchers for a couple of hours.

St Augustine's Cross is a 19th-century cross of Saxon design marking the spot where St Augustine is traditionally said to have landed in AD 597. It is a quick, free stop on the way between Thanet and Sandwich. Allow half an hour, or pair it with nearby Richborough Roman Fort.
