Samphire Hoe was opened to the public in 1997, it is owned by Eurotunnel and managed in partnership with the White Cliffs Countryside Project. A great place for walks and picnics, with stunning views of the coast and cliffs. Samphire Hoe was initially sewn with wildflower seeds and now attracts a multitude of wild animals, birds and insects.
