Leysdown-on-Sea is Sheppey's seaside resort at the eastern end of the island, home to holiday parks, the seafront and the long beach towards Shellness. Lots of our airport customers here are holidaymakers heading home, as well as the families who live in Leysdown all year.
Leysdown is the furthest point from the Sheppey Crossing, so airport journeys start with the run along the A2500 Lower Road. Allow about 5 to 10 minutes more than from Sheerness, and we'll set your pickup time to suit.
