Tips

🕊️ 𝑻𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒓

June 23, 2023

The polders, on the northeast part of Beaussais-sur-Mer, are somewhat reminiscent of the Dutch seaside. A first dyke was built in the 13th century by the monks of the Abbey of Saint-Jacut; farmers built a second in the course of the 19th century to gain new cultivable land. They definitively deprive the municipality of the beach. However in March 2020 the sea opened a breach in the containment; faced with the inexorable rise in sea level, the choice was made not to fill it (because expensive work had been done in vain since the 2000s to repair it); the breach is gradually widening, reaching around thirty meters at the end of 2021; as a result, the polder pastures are retreating in the face of salicornia and obiones and a small municipal road had to be closed in August 2019.
