Margate is easy to get to by car from the port of Dover (about 30 minutes) and also from London (about two hours).When leaving the port, turn left immediately and go up the road which goes above the port itself.Go straight on at the first two roundabouts, and then follow signs for Ramsgate. After about twenty minutes you have the option to follow signs for Margate. This will take you into the town centre. The complete journey should take 30 to 40 minutes.

If you would like to take a taxi from a London airport to Margate, remember to book it in advance. We do not recommend taking a taxi from a taxi rank at the airport, as it could be very expensive.
