Tucked away in a tiny corner, 4.6 million shells, delicately line the 70ft of winding passages/tunnels, in different patterns.... Surviving the winds of time.nBe careful with your bags and stuff so as to not cause any damage.nMaximum time spent through the tunnels: 25 minutes.nIt's a small place but it's a nice place to visit. Add it to your bucket list.nIt has a Nice gift shop, too.
I was fascinated by this place. Cave made by 4.6 million shells, I wonder how many years and dedication was invested to make this magnificent place. Tickets were £4.5 for adult, it doesn’t take long time inside, place was beautiful. You can also take souvenirs upstairs in cozy shop. Worth the ticket price and time. Just beautiful place to be, shouldn’t be missed when you are in margate.
The Shell Grotto is well sign posted within the town and easy to find on foot. Parking is limited as located in a residential area, but pay and display car parks a short walk away.nEntry costs adult £4.50 and the Grotto is truly mesmerising, the work involved is extraordinary.nNice little unusual visit and we'll pleased we did.
A beautiful, mysterious place full of wonder and intrigue. A must see for any local or visitor to Thanet. The staff are knowledgeable, helpful and provide exceptional customer care. The shop is amazing, full of treasure and a feast for the eyes. The best place to buy a gift or souvenir! Will return again and again.
Fantastic experience, although very busy. Beautiful mysterious place. Intriguing decoration made with hundreds of shells. Quite unique.
