Spring (March to May) is the best time to hike, camp and explore near Ramsgate, though there are no sunshine guarantees. Summer brings (generally) the warmest weather and beachy fun, but also high-season crowds, especially on the coast. September and October can be a lovely time for quieter outdoor adventuring as the countryside shows off its autumn colours. Sidestep the crowds by avoiding bank holidays (especially in May and August) and travelling during the week.
