Map of the UK

Beltinge is a small coastal ward on the north Kent coastline within the local authority of Canterbury in England. Perched on low cliffs above the Thames Estuary, it offers wide seaward views toward the Isle of Sheppey and neighbouring Herne Bay, and is a recognised stretch for cliff-top walking and seabird watching.

Predominantly residential, the area grew through 20th-century suburban development and still bears traces of wartime coastal defences; its economy is largely local retail and services with many residents commuting to Whitstable, Canterbury or London. Nearby green spaces such as Reculver attract visitors in season, giving the ward a quiet seaside character rather than heavy tourist infrastructure.
