Herne Bay

Join the Exploration Society in an exciting treasure hunt adventure through the charming town of Herne Bay. Inspired by the legendary flight of pioneer airwoman Tay Koff, this self-guided Treasure Trail will take you on a thrilling journey through the town's Memorial Gardens and Pier, as you solve sneaky clues to discover the location of a buried treasure.

Treasure Hunt Through Herne Bay

Get ready for a day filled with fun and adventure as you explore Herne Bay with family and friends. Follow the Trail route as it takes you from the seafront to the pier, before heading inland to discover Memorial Gardens and the main shopping street. Can YOU find the hidden treasure and claim the pot of gold?

Legend has it that during her debut flight, Tay Koff spotted a sailor burying a chest on a small desert island. She committed the location to memory and scribbled a map of the island and all the clues she could remember on her eventual landing in Herne Bay. But before she could retrieve the chest, she disappeared. Luckily, her map has been unearthed and is now in the hands of the Exploration Society.

Are YOU ready to follow the clues and uncover the curious chest?
