For a bit of History, hire a car and visit the Chatham Historic Dockyard Maritime museum, which is located on the River Medway. Chatham Dockyard used to be the forefront of ship building and once provided over 500 ships to the Royal Navy before it closed in 1984. There is plenty to see at the museum including historic warships, the famous submarine HMS Ocelot and a large lifeboat collection. The famous poet Charles Dickens grew up in Chatham and once described it as the happiest period of his childhood. If you are renting a car in Chatham it is worth visiting the Dickens World attraction to explore the Victorian World that Charles Dickens knew and wrote about in his novels and short stories.
