Thanet Coast MCZ is an inshore site located on the Kent coast. The site boundary stretches from the east of Herne Bay, around Thanet to the northern wall of Ramsgate harbour. The site protects an area of approximately 64 km².

May 2019: One new feature has been added to this site. This is because we have new evidence to support their designation.
