Dover sea conditions for swimming, paddleboarding and kayaking

Dover forecast for 8 November 2026: Sunny, 10.9°C, 11% chance of rain, 5.4 mph WSW wind. Updated 8 Nov, 14:49 UK time.

Dover is shaped by its harbour, shingle waterfront, white-cliff headlands and position in the Strait of Dover. Tidal streams, strong commercial and ferry traffic and the way the cliffs and harbour alter wind exposure can all matter at a particular access point.
