Changing Tides is a new coastal centre located at Coast Drive, Greatstone, Kent, developed by Folkestone & Hythe District Council to create a new beachside destination offering community, tourism and recreational benefits. It includes a café/concession with flexible space, 93 beach huts, water sports and changing facilities, together with changing places and public toilets. The scheme has been developed within a large, remodelled car park, next to an environmentally protected site which is a popular destination for wintering birds and water sports enthusiasts.
The café occupies a beachfront location, adjoining the Littlestone-on-Sea beach to the east. To the north is the Seawatch Hut which is used by the New Romney Sea Cadets and beyond this, there is a recreation area and further parade of beach huts. To the south of the site is a boat storage area, the Lifeboat Station and The Varne Boat Club.
The café sits within the new Changing Tides Coastal Centre building at the northern end of the site with the café approx 56 sqm including a spacious room which has potential to be used flexibly together with an outdoor seating area. The Centre will contain accessible toilets and shower facilities, a catering concession and flexible space which could be used for training and education (both advertised for let for the rent of £1,250 PCM).
It is intended that a water sports building will be formed at the southern end of the site (180sqm GIA) out of three shipping containers and the water sports businesses will have access to the education/training room in the Centre as well as exclusive use of the showers and changing facilities.
In terms of operations, it is anticipated that the public toilets will be open all year round. The water sports businesses will operate between March to October only, with the beach huts and café open all year.
Located on Coast Drive, Greatstone, this project aims to revitalise the Romney Marsh coastline. The cafe on offer provides a new destination for recreation, tourism, and local economic growth, complementing other developments like the Folkestone Harbour Arm.
