Seal Spotting from Sandwich

Our Sandwich Seal trips are approx 1 hour and 45 mins departing from the Sandwich Quay. We will travel down the river Stour for 45 mins taking in all the hidden history on the way to see the seals. Whilst on route there is so much River wildlife to be seen Herons, Little Egret, Kingfishers, Oyster Catchers and plenty more. When we approach the entrance to the River on the edge of Pegwell nature reserve you will see the active resident seal colony. This colony started here roughly 30-35 years ago. With 15 mins to admire these beautiful marine mammals and capture the amazing views of our local coast line before heading back up River to Sandwich Quay.

More about Pouces

Kent, England

Pouces in Kent is a quiet sort of place where the only thing likely to take off is your mood after a walk along the coast. The RAF Manston Museum keeps history grounded with exhibits that make you realise how far we've come since the war years. It's perfect for a Sunday afternoon when you want to learn something without feeling like you're at school again. Local groups often gather for talks or displays that bring the community together in a very British way. You'll find plenty of things to see and do nearby, so there is no need to drive miles just to pass the time.
