In 2025, Thanet District Council's Tourism team commissioned Acorn Tourism Consulting to conduct a Visitor Survey. Their work included in-person interviews, secondary research and social listening.
This survey tells us more about visitors to Thanet. Who are they, what influences them to visit and where they are coming from
It is also the only research the team conducts that enables us to show figures individually for each of the three towns - Margate, Broadstairs and Ramsgate.
