CWGC Tours 2026 - Herne Bay Cemetery

A free hour-long guided tour of Herne Bay Cemetery's war graves, led by a Commonwealth War Graves volunteer guide.

The Commonwealth War Graves Commission runs a free guided tour of Herne Bay Cemetery, led by an experienced volunteer guide. The cemetery contains war graves from both World Wars, with most burials scattered across the site in positions chosen at the time of interment, including one unidentified sailor and one Merchant Navy seaman. The tour lasts about 60 minutes and covers roughly 800 metres over paths and grass with uneven ground and slopes, meeting at the chapel near the entrance. Donations to the Commonwealth War Graves Foundation are welcomed.
