Pegwell Bay Country Park forms part of the Pegwell Bay/Sandwich Bay Local Nature Reserve and has a combination of wildlife habitats found nowhere else in the South East of England.

In the summer the grass is dotted with wild flowers such as orchids and broomrapes.

In the winter the foreshore and mudflats attract thousands of wading birds, including dunlin, sanderling and grey plover. Birds of prey, such as Merlin, can also be seen at the site. Birdwatchers can use the public bird hide, which is also accessible for disabled visitors.

There are excellent opportunities to explore beyond the park using the Public Rights of Way, especially using the Saxon Shore Way which passes through the site.

The park is a Ramsar Site of International Importance and is a wonderful place to explore.

Pegwell Bay Country Park is jointly owned and managed by Kent County Council and the Kent Wildlife Trus.
