A paradise for ornithologists, the Oye Platier nature reserve is the first French stopover for many migratory birds. It has an area of 391 hectares. Shaped by the combined action of the sea, sand and wind, it is one of the must-see attractions on the Opal Coast.

The Réserve Naturelle Nationale du Platier d'Oye is a magnificent nature reserve located near Dunkirk. This reserve covers an area of 391 hectares and offers a unique ecosystem with a rich biodiversity.
Here you can discover 230 species of birds, 20 species of mammals and 361 species of flowers and plants. It is an important stopover for migratory birds along the coast of the Manche and the North Sea.
There are three marked hiking trails through the dunes and wetlands, which are popular with botanists, birdwatchers and regular walkers. The reserve is always open and offers a wonderful place to explore nature and enjoy the peace and beauty of the area.

Protected dune with lakes and tidal flats, which should give the necessary rest to brooding birds.
There are some trails - mostly on Stegen - through the nature reserve.
These paths must not be left.
