Shakespeare Beach is a shingle beach situated in Shakespeare Bay, Dover, Kent, UK. The beach is a popular destination for both locals and tourists, providing a lengthy stretch of shingles for relaxation. In 2015, a storm destroyed the seawall, but it has since been reopened.
What is unique about this beach is that it is the shortest distance between the UK and France, making it a popular location for swimming across the Channel. Accessing the beach requires climbing over 100 steps or walking from the western side of the port near Dover Marina.
During low tide, visitors can explore the deep rock pools on the beach. Dogs are permitted on the beach year-round, making it an ideal place to take your furry companions.
However, visitors should be aware that there are no litter facilities and no on-site parking, so they must rely on on-street parking in Aycliffe.
Visitor reviews highlight the lovely secluded pebble beach with great views, perfect for a quiet walk or to run dogs or kids around. However, visitors complain about the dirty path to get there, with dog poo and cans scattered along the way. The beach is also described as a bit grim under the subway.
