About Dungeness B Visitor Centre
Due to Coronavirus our Visitor Centre will remain closed for the rest of 2020. All site tours have been suspended and our exhibition centre remains closed, we are also unfortunately unable to take any forward bookings at this time. We will review our opening arrangements towards the end of the year and will update our website with further information.
We look forward to welcoming back all our visitors when we have returned to normal business.
Our visitor centre at Dungeness B power station sits in a unique location in the middle of Dungeness National Nature Reserve in Kent; a Special Protection Area (SPA) and a Special Area of Conservation (SAC). It’s a diverse landscape home to many unique plants, animals and birds - one third of all UK plant species are found here at Dungeness.
The visitor centre has an interactive exhibition centre to help visitors understand more about nuclear power generation.
