Coast
The white-cliffs coast road from Dover to Deal.
The A258 runs along the Kent coast from Dover up to Deal, above the famous white cliffs and St Margaret's Bay, with the Channel, and France on a clear day, off to the east. A rolling, open road; mind the coastal crosswinds, cyclists grinding up the climbs, and the busy traffic near the ports and towns.
