Blessing of the Waters

Sea Wall / Reeves Beach

This traditional event, appeasing the cruel seas and giving thanks for its bounty, dates back to 1657. Everyone is welcome to join the procession of clergy and choristers for this very special, historic service, which is held annually as near as possible to the Feast Day of St James, patron saint of oystermen.

Organised by the Whitstable Branch of the Association of Men of Kent and Kentish Men.

Free.
