The Great Kentish Bird Off 2026 will occur on 24 October 2026 at Riverside Country Park in Rainham. This event features a competition between North Kent and East Kent birdwatchers.
It's the battle of the binoculars with North Kent at Riverside vs East Kent at Pegwell Bay
The Great Kentish Bird Off is back for another year and this year the North Kent team have moved location. We'll be at Riverside Country Park recording all the birds we see and hear between 10am and 3pm on Saturday 24 October. East Kent will be at Pegwell Bay doing the same.
Come along and help us spot as many species as possible and raise awareness of our amazing coastal birds that migrate to our shores for the winter months.
We'll have guided walks at Riverside at 10.30am and 1.30pm either side of the high tide.
We'll be set up with our gazebo next to the main car park. There are toilets on site and a great cafe. Paid parking is available in the main car park and at Sharps Green.
