Food scene

A recently restored Harbour Arm with a champagne bar in the lighthouse at the end! Breathing new life into this once old British Railway dock, you now find eateries, market stalls and live music. Slightly quieter out of season but worth a visit. Great for sunsets and champagne! At the foot of the Harbour Arm is 'Rocksalt', a renowned restaurant, booking in advance is required!

Whether it's a simple walk up the The Wye Crown or a more adventurous trek along the North Downs and Pilgrims Way from Wye to Chilham, where you can end your walk with a pub lunch and get the train home! Both highly recommended. The Wye Downs Natural Reserve is at the top off Scotton St, passing through Wye and up to the top of the hill. There's a free car park.
