Boulogne Sur Mer beach

Like most beaches in the north of the country, the coastline of Boulogne Sur Mer attracts with picturesque scenery and the possibility of walks by the sea, but not by swimming. The sea waters here are very cold, and only locals dare to plunge into them. But it is just a great place for meditative contemplation, yoga and just exciting hiking. The coast is covered with amazingly clean snow-white sand. It is quite often windy here, and sand can get into your eyes, but there are no big waves.

But do not forget about the very strong tidal currents, characteristic to this French coastline. That is why people usually rest here on towels rather than on loungers or rent one of the houses, located at a considerable distance from the sea, with facilities for daytime beach holidays. Nearby there are usually attractions for children, children's playgrounds and volleyball pitches. At these houses it is possible to safely sit on loungers. There is a sailing yachting school on the eastern edge of the beach.
