Hiking
The dike at Favières is a hiking trail that takes you to the edge of the Bay of Somme, a nature reserve that is home to a rich biodiversity of fauna and flora. It was built in the 19th century to protect the land from the sea. The sea wall offers a panoramic view of the bay, where you can observe the changing colors of the water, the sandbanks and the marshes. You will also be able to spot many birds, such as herons, egrets, ducks and geese.

Hiking
Cross the Bay of the Somme from Crotoy, take the steam train back and then go to Le Hourdel to see the seals, that's all you need for a wonderful holiday.
