My first time visiting margate , I easily found parking 5 mins from the beach (Dreamland carpark). The beach was very busy ,it was a weekend and hot, so that was to be expected.

The beach itself was a nice sandy beach and very big ,my honest opinion. I don't think I'd come back, a lot of people playing loud music ,bbqs right next to other people on a extremely busy day ,people drunk ( yes it's outside and people want to relax etc but when I have to shout to talk to the person next to me it annoying ,people drinking in the sea and leaving there beer cans in the sea along with dirty nappies on the beach and sea ,so much rubbish everywhere .

I only found one public toilet and the que was very long because people were using them.as changing rooms . Needs to have more public toilets . The sea pool was not so nice again my opinion it there was a small and wasn't nice was very slimy best to go in the actual sea which was better we even saw fish .

There's rockpools which my kids loved as they like looking for crabs and fish and we found some just wear beach shoes .

Evening time we went in an arcade which was ok my kids won a few prizes
