Blue Town is Sheerness's oldest quarter, built around the former naval dockyard and now home to the Port of Sheerness and the Blue Town Heritage Centre. It's only a couple of minutes from our base, so a local taxi here is never far away.
We take Blue Town residents to the shops, the station and appointments every day, and run port workers and ship's crew to and from the docks at all hours. Tell us where you'll be waiting and we'll come to you.
