A stone’s throw from the shopping streets of the town centre, Le Touquet seafront is the resort’s other beating heart. Here you can savour all those seaside pleasures, from dips in the sea and icecream cornets to merry-go-round rides and organised summer activities.
Events galore
A lively place by its very essence, the seafront is the perfect venue for major events such as the Le Touquet/Pas-de-Calais Enduropale motorcycle race, or the Le Touquet Music Beach Festival at the end of August. The resort also hosts competitions in sandyachting, one of its flagship sports.
From spring to autumn, the beach is scattered with all sorts of installations designed to keep the whole family happy. Organised sports events, summer tours, beach volleyball competitions… not forgetting the children’s beach clubs and various sports activities.
A place to explore, a place to unwind
The seafront is also a great place to walk, with a whole array of activities for children and adults alike. You can walk or pedal along the seafront cycle paths, or just enjoy some family time. Children will love the traditional merry-go-round with wooden horses. Other options include the beach clubs, Surrey bike rentals, and stalls selling icecream and various sweet treats. The scene is set!
As for the sunset over the English Channel, this outstanding, romantic spectacle sets the CinemaScope sky ablaze with colour and light that make the sea sparkle all the way to the horizon.
The beach bars installed right on the sand are open from Easter until the autumn, bringing a spirit of togetherness to this site where the first days of spring attract many sports enthusiasts. The ideal spot for them to quench their thirst and perhaps even enjoy a bite to eat while admiring one of the loveliest views of the resort.
