In order to do a coastal walk, a friend needs to travel from Stratford International out to Margate, then from either Sandwich or Deal back to Stratford later that same day. It will be on a Saturday.

Is there a destination he can buy a Super Off Peak Day Return to, that will allow:
- Ending his outbound journey in Margate
- Beginning his return journey at either Sandwich or Deal?

Any advice gratefully received.

A Super Off-Peak Day Return from Stratford International to Deal, route Plus High Speed, would meet all of the stated requirements.

It's possible that an Advance ticket may be cheaper if your friend is happy to commit to specific trains, particularly if they are able to take advantage of the current "Great British Rail Sale" which offers around 50% off the cheapest tickets.
So long as they are prepared to return via Margate, there is a Not Ashford ticket at £30.
They could get an excess to return via Ashford which would split the difference - if someone will issue it :(

Thank you. Good to know the return to Deal works, but also that there's a cheaper alternative.

We'll stay away from Advance fares to avoid pressure on the walk.

I appreciate both of your help.
