Faversham is beautiful, and Whitstable nice enough, but the intervening coastal stretch is an extremely monotonous and exposed trudge between an estuary shoreline and a solar power plant. If it were one segment it'd be fine but for 16 km it's gruelling. Quiet and isolated.

Coastal: three quarters along the coast.

Faversham: Very picturesque medieval market town with many interesting shops and historic sites (15 mins in).

2 lunch spots: Secret Garden Tea Room (15 mins in), or the Sportsman (2h30 in; reservations recommended)
