The striking Red Sands Sea Forts, which form part of the Maunsell Forts, are situated just off the coast of Whitstable at the mouth of the Thames Estuary.
Visible off the beaches of Whitstable are two sets of WW2 gun forts. One is just off the Isle of Sheppey and the other is in International Waters. Two companies offer boat trips to see the forts (amazing eerie and so tall) and a separate tour to see the seals on the sandbanks. We would advise booking early. www.oystercoastwaterports.co.uk and www.whitstableboattrips.co.uk

These quadruped giants were constructed in the second world war to protect London and other Thames settlements from the aerial and naval attentions of Nazi Germany. Three sets of Maunsell Forts, named after their designer Guy Maunsell, were built in the Estuary to this design: the Nore forts off Sheerness, now demolished; and the Red Sands and Shivering Sands forts, further out.
