Le Crotoy and its waterfront
Walks, beaches and sea air
Le Crotoy is distinguished by its exceptional south-facing location. Its immense sandy beach is ideal for swimming, board sports and long walks.
The villa-lined seafront bears witness to the prestigious past of this resort, which has inspired many artists. Jules Verne wrote “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea” in his villa “La Solitude”. The writer Colette also stayed here. Impressionist painters Seurat and Sisley, as well as Toulouse-Lautrec, were impressed by the colors and light so particular to the place.
Activities: water sports (sand yachting, kitesurfing, kayaking, paddle), fishing at low tide, nature outings to observe seals (one of the largest colonies in France), sandcastle competitions.
The little port is home to some good seafood restaurants. The Friday morning market gives you the chance to discover local produce. Saint-Pierre church is worth a visit for its stained glass windows and model boats.
Beware of tide times: high tide comes in quickly, low tide leaves the beach as far as the eye can see. Ask before you go out.
