    Nice viewing platform with various display boards, great views of the canal and, in good weather, as far as the limestone cliffs on the Dover coast.

      The Cap Gris-Nez ("gray nose") is a headland on France's Channel coast, the Côte d’Opale.
      Da Cap is referred to as "gray" because the rock is gray, in contrast to Cap Blanc-Nez, which is in sight to the north, where white chalk rock can be seen.

      At the highest point there is a lighthouse that cannot be visited.

        The lighthouse is used as a weather station and as a lighthouse keeper school. It is not walkable.
