The magic of Whitstables gardens lies not in acres of land, but in the ingenuity of town gardeners making the most of their spaces. Here, small plots, hidden corners and the challenges of a seaside climate spark creativity and invention. Gravel, walls, rooftops and shingle are all turned to advantage, with gardeners finding surprising ways to bring colour, texture and life into the town. Some gardens brim with roses and climbers, others create calm through artful planting, while community spaces show what can be achieved when people come together. Exploring them is a celebration of diversity, imagination and the sheer pleasure of plants. No two gardens are alike, yet together they reflect the character and creativity of Whitstable itself.
