Dog Friendly Beach
Dumpton Gap is between Broadstairs and Ramsgate and dog friendly all year round.

It is tidal so if tide is high there is no beach so do check the tide times! When the tide is out you can walk from Dumpton to Ramsgate on the beach and then it’s a lead walk at Ramsgate but Ramsgate is very dog friendly in the cafes there.

At Dumpton there’s a cafe on the promenade and toilets and you can park free on the street too and walk down the slope onto the beach. If the tide is in you can walk along the top which takes you to a big park with a bit of woodland and another cafe and toilets. Lovely walk that way into Ramsgate too we do this if the tide is in.

We also found a mini dog spa, a sea pool in the cliff face on the beach and Nancy found it first and swims in it (pictured!). It’s a great place and dog walkers love it!
