Dover Sea Safari will take you out on the Dover Explorer and transfer you by tender on to the Goodwin Sands.
Where we will let you roam free (with good advice!) and get up to whatever you'd like to do!
Why not follow the tradition first started in the summer of 1824, Captain K. Martin, then the Harbourmaster at Ramsgate, instituted the proceedings of the first known cricket match on the Goodwin Sands.
To our knowledge this has died out since the Hovercraft stopped running all those years ago. It's time to restart the tradition with monthly summer matches.
Spot the abundant seals to be found basking on the Sands or look for the remains of the many wrecked ships that can become exposed from time to time with the shifting sands.
Whatever it is you would like to do, we will allow you roughly 1hr to explore before setting home via the White Cliffs of Dover.
