Folkestone Harbour Arm

A super place to visit if you're in town any time of the year.
The restored train station and railway lines add a certain charm to the place, and the old wagons and units have been integrated imaginatively as bars, bistros and cafés.
There's plenty to enjoy for everyone, from putting mini golf to a weekend food court come market.

I love to visit this place.
Highly recommended.
I feel relax whenever I go to Folkestone, Harbour and beach.
Especially on sunny day. Fun, music, food etc.
You can also enjoy live ferries leaving Dover for Calais.

Lovely walk down the harbour arm. Great pub right at the end in the old light house. Lovely place to take dogs as in winter they can go on the beach too. My dog loves the sea, no matter how cold it might be. 🤦‍♂

Great place for sea side walks with lots of food and drink vendors and a small market.

Beautiful views of the cliffs and surrounding areas and lot of boats to watch.

The Christmas Markets were brilliant. So well thought out with lots to see, eat and buy. There’s always a treat, whether summer or winter. Folkestone and the Harbour Arm are definitely worth a visit.

Never a disappointing afternoon on the harbour arm. Highly recommend.

Due to seasonal changes, we have migration and rare birds stopping off in our harbour. Worth the watch (:

Really enjoyed our (very windy) walk along the harbour arm. The eateries weren't open, but can imagine it gets busy on a weekend. The views and scenery were lovely. Really liked that the old train station has been kept and maintained.

Harbour Arm is a great up and coming development with an assortment of various food vendors. It's a great place to meet friends for a drink with a spectator view and often hosts live music on the weekends during the summer. The large screen will also show football games, events such as Eurovision and movies. You can view the schedule for these on the harbour Arm website. It's great to see what has been achieved in such a short time and looking forward to seeing it's development.

Lovely walk past the old Folkestone harbour train station I’m sure in the summer it’s a great hit with all the restaurants that are on the harbour

A very unique centre which offers the perfect viewing platform for the White cliffs of Dover, boasts a number of culinary options including a pub based in a light house, various vendors including the big Greek Bus, it also provided a great solution to re-using an old train station and turning it into an arts and culture centre as well as a gateway / entrance to the harbour arm.
Definitely worth a visit.

Clearly money and time are being spent on renovating the old platforms, and the surrounding goods yards, to make it a food, and a art hub.

It is easy to see the history of both the station and harbour.

A visit in season and on a fine day would show of the work and allow you to enjoy food and drink whilst watching the sea or looking at the exhibits rather than a cold wet day in March!

Fantastic location for Live sport and Music. Wide variety of street food and drinks. Highly recommend. Waited for over an hour for venue to open but due to being the women’s World Cup final and we knew we would need to get there early to guarantee entry!!

The place is really good with a nice view. There is a range of restaurants nearby which offers authentic sea food.

I was really impressed with the harbour Arm, we live in the north east and have a wonderful coastline but nothing quite like the harbour arm unfortunately. There are so many food and drink establishments that you will find something for every taste, a huge outdoor screen ( showing sports while we were there) is surrounded by deckchairs and wood huts serving food and drink, dog and child friendly too which is a bonus! There is a crazy golf and a lovely walk through the old railway station and onto the stunning beach, or you can stroll along the pier and take in the bars and eateries along there whilst enjoying lovely views of the white cliffs. A lovely bonus at the end is the lighthouse champagne bar, a great end to a lovely walk 😊🍾

Lovely place for a walk, anytime of the day, the gates do shut when it get late though so check the times.

Amazing views and experience with kids and family. Very sunny day, a lot of people out on the top fishing. We could see the art installations, tried some of the good food and drinks. Also had the opportunity of browsing as it was a Sunday market as well. Definitely coming back.

Beautiful lighthouse at the end and beautiful Folkestone writing on the wall. The railway and platforms are beautifully maintained. There are bars and food stalls along with a double decker bus used for cooking Greek food. When we were there it was VERY windy!!! But we still took plenty of photos and loved the views from here. You can walk at two different levels along the harbour. The lower level faces Sunny Sands beach. The higher level exposed to winds has views all around.

Great place to visit and spend a day out enjoying the sun, sea and beaches ⛱ ❤👌👍
Lovely view 😍 ❤ 💕

Having seen the harbour back before it was open to the public, it was amazing to see so many people out and about! It felt like a place I'd want to go back to again. It finally has character, a purpose. It's giving me hope for the future of the town!

Beautiful place to spend on a sunny day. Great views of the channel, and a lovely stretch of shingle beach. Water was clear, warm and inviting.
