Herne Bay is a seaside town in Kent, England. Extensive seafront regeneration in the 1990s followed the creation of a sea defence jetty to protect low-lying areas of the town which were subject to flooding. Neptune's Arm, as it is called, lies a short way out to sea in the central area and has created a small harbour used by working and leisure boats. The Victorian gardens on the seafront were then able to be fully restored. Residents and businesses are campaigning for a full restoration of the pier. The town museum contains many historic photographs on the effects of storms and flooding on the area. The Victorian bandstand is now home to the Herne Bay Information Centre.
