Slaughterhose Point, stop in Borough of Swale

Slaughterhose Point

Slaughterhouse Point sits on the Isle of Sheppey in the Thames Estuary, where you can drop anchor off this remote stretch of the North Kent marshes. The landscape here is wild and flat, with sweeping tidal mudflats and big skies that make it feel genuinely off the beaten track. It's a spot that rewards those who appreciate raw, unspoiled estuary scenery over creature comforts.
