As the UK firmly settles into spring, there’s nothing more appealing than a day at the beach. A unique beach in Kent feels like it could be overseas, according to the expert team at Parkdean Resorts.
Dungeness Beach in Kent is a shingle beach which has a very unique ecosystem and is sometimes described as the UK’s only desert.
A spokesperson from Parkdean said: “Surprisingly, Dungeness Beach has a similar aesthetic to Taiwan’s unspoilt coastline and is almost identical to Sunrise Crescent Bay in Qixingtan.
“Both destinations exude a wild and remote feeling and feature golden grey pebbles and coastal views for miles.
“However, travelling to Dungeness Beach could save travellers 7,990 miles of commute and over £6,000.”

Dungeness Beach sits on the edge of Romney Marsh and is home to over 600 species of plant.
The unique spot is an important ecosystem and is also home to several rare insects, despite its barren appearance,
A tourist ‘worldshirl’ said: “Technically a desert, this area has huge skies and an end of the world feeling.
“Two lighthouses and two nuclear power stations complete this surreal landscape which is somehow completely beautiful.”
Another visitor ‘BirdBrain99’ said: “Scenery like nowhere else. The shapes of the old fishing boats sitting on the beach is something to behold.”
‘HDXB’ said: “Such a lovely place to walk and look out for pebbles, shells and listen to the waves.”
Dungeness Beach might not be the ideal sunbathing spot but the breathtaking beach is definitely worth a visit.
