More about this scene
Here we have a wonderful picture of this peaceful seaside resort; the distinctive large hotel on the left is still there. Otherwise, Pegwell Bay has seen some changes. In 1968 it became a hoverport with a cross-channel service. With the demise of the hovercraft service, a noisy go-kart circuit was established. The bay itself, an expanse of salt marsh and sand, has become the domain of ornithologists and bait diggers. The coastline of cliff, estuary, dune and marsh is now a nature reserve.
