Welcome to Focus on Thanet, a website dedicated to news, reviews and discussions about Thanet.
For 5,000 years up to Roman times, Thanet was an island; the Wantsum Channel eventually silted up and joined the island to mainland Kent.
It’s now in a very unique position; close to the continent and on a high speed rail link to London, Thanet has a unique identity – and weather system – all of its own!
This website is set up specifically to talk about Thanet’s events, places, people and history. If you live in Thanet and want to find somewhere to visit, or are thinking of coming to Thanet for the first time, then Focus on Thanet is the place to come!
