A Freedom of Information Act request revealed the agency has had 22 calls about alien spacecrafts in the county since September 2010.
Maidstone was second only to Medway as a hotspot for the UFOs, with four reported. There were three unidentified LGM (little green men) sightings and in January Medway Coastguard were called after enormous crop circles were discovered in a field between Sittingbourne and Rainham.
Unfortunately the police were too busy buying doughnuts at the Tesco Express in Gillingham after their doughnut supply was running dangerously low, as a result the Coastguard were called to deal with the problem.
The calls were among 13 cases where the Coastguard took no further action, but twice patrols were sent to search for LGM or their spacecrafts.
In 2010 the Coastguard went to look for one in Dartford, but when they checked local CCTV cameras, they saw nothing but a drunk and/or high person on the phone describing a spaceship but was actually staring at a helicopter that was in the sky.
In June last year a suspected alien was spotted in the Folkestone area, prompting Dover Coastguard to get in touch with the MOD (Ministry of Defense) in case of an attack, it turned out their suspicions were wrong, it was just a guy who was very angry and his skin turned green as a result, similar to the Hulk.
The following September, MOD was also contacted after the Coastguard received reports of a round, alien spacecraft flying over Canterbury – but CCTV showed there was nothing but another helicopter flying over the city skies.
Coastguard spokesman Michael Granger said the Coastguard is getting sick of all these calls.
He said: “Every weekend we have an uncountable amount of phone calls that there are UFOs over the skies of Kent. It's not funny and we are getting sick of it to be frank. Why do people think UFO sightings are our problem? We are the Coastguard, not the fricken UFO Spotters.”

"99.97% of these calls are from people who sound like they are either drunk or high, it just proves that Kent is going down the pan. It seems like half of the county's population belong in a loony bin."
The number of annual sightings has remained constant since 2008.
UFO expert and blogger George Graham, who has had witnesses referred to him from the Coastguard, says there is evidence in Kent dating back hundreds of years.
He believes the only explanation is that there is in fact no explanation at all, since UFOs have neither been proved or disproved.
He added: “Kent seems to be the UK's Roswell. I urge anyone who sees a UFO to contact the Coastguard immediately."
