Gorgeous beaches.
Great Margate beach! Come often! Nice local places to eat within walking distance for all tastes. Mini golf too! Great for the whole family shore getaway! Day, weekend, week or all summer!
Not crowded, though this pic was taken end of May. Still on weekdays, it's quiet.
I love Margate beach! It's beautiful, usually isn't crowded, peaceful and relaxing. The only problem is the construction still going on and how the beach has changed so much in the past year. The tides are different and between erosion from storms and the change in the beaches look, length and sand is a hindrance at best and hopefully will be fixed as best as they can as soon as possible. Plus some entrances are blocked by construction, but once you make it to the ocean side it almost completely makes up for the mess you go through to get there. (P. S. If a worker pulls up to you while walking the shore line, don't pay him any mind. They drive around in their trucks trying to intimidate people off the beach, but it's public property and as long as you're not where they're working at that moment or near their equipment they are supposed to leave you alone. That unfortunately is not the case, but don't let that stop you from enjoying Margate beach. Just know you're rights and respectfully tell them to mind their business and continue enjoying what's left of the beautiful beach that will hopefully be restored to it's former glory!
