About Hawk Place Campsite
Hawk Place Campsite occupies a quiet spot just outside Minnis Bay, making it a practical base for exploring Birchington-on-Sea and the wider Thanet coast. The site welcomes dogs and offers electric hook-ups alongside the essentials – showers, toilets, drinking water and waste disposal. Open year-round, it suits families and tourers looking for somewhere unpretentious to pitch up while they venture out to the beaches and coastal paths nearby.
Some guests note the facilities can feel a little tired in places, though the location and relaxed, no-frills atmosphere win out for many. If you're after bells and whistles or on-site entertainment, this probably isn't your spot – but for straightforward camping within easy reach of Minnis Bay's sandy shores, it does the job well enough.

What visitors say
We had a fantastic stay at this site. It's a very short walk down a beautiful path straight to the beach and a 10 minute walk to the nearest cafe and pub. We felt like we had a great mix of nature and accessibility to town. The facilities were really nice also, toilets and showers were nice and clean. It was also great to have a kettle on site for our hot water bottle and cups of tea. The site was also very secure and safe. We would definitely stay again.

Absolutely amazing place!!! ☀️🏕️🌊 Lots to do and see. 2min to the sea. The only odd thing is that if you're coming with a tent, you should bring a spare set of pegs; the ground here only lets them go in halfway before they won't budge any further. All of mine need replacing now. 😅

Fantastic camp site. Came on a bike with a tent early in April - so Easter Bank holiday but not a busy time. Splendid location right between Whitstable and Margate right on the coastline, but still sheltered. Well organised, clean, and good showers. Highly recommended.

Stayed here over Easter weekend in our motorhome. Loved the tranquility of the campsite, no light pollution at night. Great location for the beach and cycle routes along the coastal path. A little gem of a place.
