We are open daily but please be aware that we may have to close the pier at short notice because of winter weather conditions

Traditional Seaside Fun for All the Family!

Supporting Herne Bay Pier Trust

As with many local volunteer community groups, Herne Bay Pier Trust is a registered charity that relies upon grant funding, donations and income from the pier.  Often, grant funding applications can be influenced by the public and so, on this page we’re asking for your support for current funding opportunities.  We’d very much appreciate your help in gaining much-needed cash for our campaigns and also ask you to share the campaigns amongst families & friends on social media.

Help Herne Bay Pier Win the 2026 Bucket and Spade Award!

We are thrilled to announce that Herne Bay Pier has been officially shortlisted for the Seaside Heritage Network’s 2026 Bucket and Spade List!

We want to claim the number one spot and celebrate the very best of the British seaside, but we cannot do it without you. Voting is open now until the end of August. It takes less than five minutes to back your local pier and help us bring this prestigious award home to Herne Bay.
