I used spend the school summer holidays on this beach, as we lived up the road, there used to be an archway going across to the island but that has eroded now. Health & safety didn't exist either!!
It was a grey old day!
Botany Bay is linked with the history of smugglers. In 1769 smuggler Joss Snelling and his gang were caught with contraband on the beach by the Revenue Patrol, after a fierce fight Joss escaped. Joss survived to become an old man, who was introduced to Princess Victoria on a visit to the area. He died in Broadstairs in 1837. There is also Joss bay a litte further up I wonder who that is named after!

Cap'n Jack Sparrow: We be sailing to Botany Bay
Me: Can't we go in the car it's only next to Margate!
I've lived in Kent all my life a yet strangely this weekend was the first I'd ever heard of Botany Bay and the first time I've visited Deal Pier. I wonder what other gems Kent has waiting for me.

Facing westward. The large tree that dominates the scene is a magnificent specimen of Southern Live Oak (Quercus virginiana).
As one would expect given its locale, the branches of this lovely monster are festooned with Spanish Moss, otherwise known as Tillandsia usneoides. Actually not a moss at all, this clump-forming freeloader is in fact an epiphytic (tree-dwelling) bromeliad, a highly adapted flowering plant in the same family as the pineapple. To get a closer look at this amazing epiphyte, see Part 28 of this set.
In the previous, Part 30 description, I mentioned that another giant on the Pinckney site, a Southern Magnolia, was a member of the ancient magnoliid lineage of flowering plants. Here, however, we have representatives of the other two great angiosperm groups: the Southern Live Oak is a eudicot, and the Spanish Moss is a monocot.

A few weeks ago I was trawling through Google maps looking to see what Kent's northern coastline had to offer, and came across these fantastic chalk stacks. Today I headed down towards Margate aiming for high tide and was very lucky with the weather. When I finally arrived after negotiating rush hour m25, walking down to the beach was totally worth the stressful drive. I can imagine this beach is incredibly popular on a sunny summers day, but today with the foreboding clouds it was just myself and the occasional dog walker.

I drove down this road this morning, before dawn, to get to my sunrise location. It's a little spooky in the dark.

📟 : 313 to Chingford Station
🚍 : LT185 - LTZ1185
LT185 passes through Botany Bay (and avoids a little branch) as it heads from Potters Bar to Chingford Station operating route 313.
although not a very large beach the landscape here is quite unique compared to most beaches here in the South...the tides have long since eroded this once beautiful plantation ,two originally and created these skeleton trees...truly quite a pristine place,,swimming would be cautionary due to all of the stumps in the water that are unseen..but just sitting and viewing is gift enough,or adding to the shell art others have created along the path..have a blessed day one and all..
