    Der einzige Zugang zum Strand bei Escalles. Oben kann man parken und es gibt auch ein paar Plätze für Wohnmobile. Leider werden diese oft von den PKW s zugestellt. Für Pkw gibt es richtig viele Parkplätze, die mit einer Höhenbegrenzung ist. Am Parkplatz befinden sich auch eine Toilette und alles ist kostenlos. Bis zum Strand, der bei Flut nur aus Steinen besteht, sind es ca 800m zu Fuß. Bei Ebbe ist der Strand mit Sand und sehr weitläufig. Rechts bis nach Sangatte. Man kann hier herrlich wandern, aber man muss den Gezeitenkalender beachten. Es gibt bis Sangatte keine Möglichkeit wieder hoch zu kommen. Vom 15.5. Bis 15.9. Sind hier Hunde verboten.

    Wonderful beach for swimming and hiking. The water was very pleasant when I was there in July, probably around 20°C. The sand was very fine and it felt very safe swimming here. Around the beach there are some structures from world war two, along with a lot of nesting birds on the cliff-face. The beach is also very wide at low tide, so I cannot imagine it being too crowded.

    Perfect for a day trip! Beautiful beach. Easy access from parking. A nice, but windy, hike to walk on the sandy beach and then back via the fields and cliffs. Seeing The White Cliffs of Dover across the sea so clearly is a delight. Great that toilets are available by parking. The water taps for hands didn't work. No benches/chairs so if you want to do a picnic, bring a blanket! And try to find a spot out of the wind.

    Go directly to the beach in order to view the cliffs instead of going to the viewpoint. You can hike to the top of the cliff where there’s a monument of some sort. We spent most of the morning here to enjoy the view and fresh air. When it’s not cloudy, you could see the White Cliffs of Dover in England! Do watch out for the tide as it can come in quite quickly.

    The beach at the foot of Cap Blanc-Nez is covered by water on high tide but becomes a very wide sandy expanse at low tide. Excellent for walking, swimming and playing in the sand. The cliffs are very beautiful in the afternoon/evening light and the crowds thin out as the evening draws on.

    Amazing beach! Small, free carpark. Walk down the path 10min to see the beach. Huge empty beach. Sea pools ideal for small kids. Windy. No toilets. Muslim friendly. U can enjoy and relax without the crowd.

  • 5/5 Ralf E. 1 year ago on Google
    Ein wunderbarer Strand den man aber nur bei Ebbe voll genießen kann.

  • 5/5 Annamaria V. 7 months ago on Google
    Beautiful spot. Just check tide times before arrival as the beach disappears completely with water coming up to the cliffs

  • 5/5 Sophie K. 7 months ago on Google
    This beach is a must-visit! It's quite crowded because of all tourists, but if there's low tide, the beach is huge and there's plenty of room to walk. Our kids loved building bridges in the tidal pools on the beach, using stones and pebbles.
