Roll on Camber on the 7th
Low tide is 12:20
Camber is useable for about 2-3 hours each side of LT, Greatstone more like 3-4 hours each side.
We can decide on the day or day prior, which beach to hit, as it depends on wind direction.
Camber
Anything starting with South or North is good
Greastone
Anything starting with a West or East is good.
Check the link for current conditions

Right the beaches
Greatstone beach, taken from the SEKA web site info.
This has a small car park, but if it is full a P&D is up the road towards Littlestone,
but you will be about 1/2 mile away, so best if we can all get into the free CP.

Some photos of the beach.
Canmber beach, taken from the SEKA web site info.
This has a big free car park, but has a height barrier entry,
think it is 2m, and a small lay-by just past the main CP for big vans.

Ok, to get to these.. Takes about 1 hour 15 min from Dartford Crossing So:
From Dartford crossing,
Stay on M25 and turn off onto the M20
At Junction 10 (about 3/4 hour from DC) turn off
Go right at the roundabout towards Brenzett on A2070
At the next roundabout we could meet at the McD's, & follow each other.
if not go straight over this.
Take next exit left, to Lydd Airport, down to roundabout, and turn right.
Keep on A2070 for 20min or so, until big roundabout with petrol station on it.
Turn left towards Lydd on A259 for about 2 miles
At this point T junction.
For Camber
Turn left Lydd airport,A2075, follow road over bridge and through Lydd.
At the end of the road turn right, follow it for 2 miles ish, until you get to
Jury's gap, sea wall on left, small houses on right, the CP is just up on your left,
before you get into camber.
For Greatstone
Carry straight on, until you come to traffic lights, and turn right.
Towards Littlestone, all the way to end, and turn right again.
Follow road, you will go past 2 P&D car parks, the free one is
opposite the holiday camp, and pub.
Any Q's ask away.
