More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
Stepping off the cruise, the wind from the Channel still wet on your face, a driver in a smart vehicle waits at the quay. Bags are loaded; a bottle of water appears. The road out of Dover climbs past the white cliff faces and the ruins of a Roman lighthouse before flattening into the patchwork of Kent orchards and market towns. The car hums onto the M20, and the city’s edge recedes as the navigator sets a steady, professional pace toward Heathrow.
