There are various public toilets throughout Thanet, some of which are only open throughout the summer season; April to September. The majority include a facility for the disabled with several also offering baby changing facilities. Full details, together with opening times, are listed below.
A radar key is needed to gain access to our disabled toilets, these can be purchased at Thanet's Gateway, Cecil Street, Margate or from our Visitor Information centre (external site). Please note that this is a non refundable purchase.
For security purposes disabled toilets are padlocked outside of opening times.
The National Key Scheme (NKS) has been set up by the Royal Association for Disability and Rehabilitation (Radar) to allow disabled key holders independent entry to all toilets fitted with a lock, which include toilets in railways, pubs and shopping centres.
Please see map of the public toilets in Thanet from which you can view aerial photographs of the location of each facility.
2012 dates will be published soon.
