Let’s go fly a kite!

We're all familiar with toy kites and the struggle we usually have to fly them - now you can see how it's really done! Kent Kite Flyers will be at South Foreland Lighthouse with their beautifully designed devices giving demonstrations throughout the day of their aerobatic and eye-catching designs.

The event takes place in the South Foreland Lighthouse compound. This is a free event but normal admission charges apply for the venue. Supervised children are welcome. The weather can change rapidly on the cliffs, so please dress appropriately. We recommend stout shoes and trousers for the walk to the lighthouse.

Dogs are welcome but must be kept under close control. Assistance dogs only in the tearoom, shop and lighthouse tower.

Accessibility

  • There is no public vehicle access or parking at South Foreland Lighthouse. If you are a Blue Badge holder, please telephone the South Foreland Lighthouse Office in advance for instructions.
  • An additional parking area will be open, 15 minutes' walk from the lighthouse. Part of the walk will be on grass and may not suit some mobility scooters or wheelchairs.

For further information please read the accessibility statement on the South Foreland Lighthouse website.
