The Petit Blanc-Nez is a cliff in the Pas-de-Calais region and is part of the Deux-Caps (Two Capes) area, which also includes Cap Gris-Nez. Both are part of the protected area classified as a Grand Site de France and offer breathtaking views of the English Channel and, on a clear day, the English coast.

Escalles is located on the coast of the Pas de Calais, part of the Opal Coast. The height of the commune varies from 0 to 154 meters, and the church is located at an altitude of 47 meters above sea level, at the foot of the 151 meters high Mont d'Hubert. From Escalles, a road leads steeply down to the sea, the CRAN D'ESCALLES. In the immediate vicinity of the village is Cap Blanc-Nez, with chalk cliffs.
