The shingle beach is gently sloping, flattening to a wide expanse of sand and mud that is exposed when the tide retreats. The bathing water contains numerous groynes and is backed by a promenade. To the east is a pier and a harbour breakwater.
Herne Bay Central Beach is adjacent to the Kent Coastline Walk.
