The Mediterranean Garden was completed in 2000 as part of the restoration of Clacton's seafront gardens. All the plants and trees seen here are from the Mediterranean, thriving in hot dry conditions. They have adapted well to conditions in Clacton, which is one of the warmest and driest places in the UK. The Mediterranean Garden together with the other seafront gardens next door host Clacton's annual mountain bike rally and the Essex Air Ambulance Bike Ride.
