Hoo Peninsula

About

The Hoo Peninsula is a rural area in Medway, Kent, surrounded by the River Thames and Medway estuaries. Known for its marshland and nature reserves, it offers a mix of farmland, wetlands, and small villages. The area is home to the RSPB Cliffe Pools, a key site for birdwatching, and has a history tied to maritime and industrial activities, including former munitions factories.

The peninsula has a sparse population, with settlements like Hoo St Werburgh and Cliffe-at-Hoo retaining a quiet, village-like atmosphere. The landscape is flat and open, with views across the water towards Essex and the Isle of Grain. Despite its rural feel, the area has seen some development, including debates over potential infrastructure projects. The Hoo Peninsula remains a contrast to the more urban parts of Medway.
