View of Équihen-Plage (South Access)

Highlight • Viewpoint

Equihen beach is sandy and stretches over 3 km. Unlike many seaside resorts on the Côte d'Opale, Équihen-Plage has preserved its wild landscape and natural environment. For this reason she is sometimes referred to as the "wild girl of the Côte d'Opale".
There are several accesses to the beach. The main one, the southernmost one, is the only urbanized place by the sea, and accessible by road bike. Be careful, you have to plan a lift if you go down to the beach...

Beach access and sea view

Highlight • Beach

Access to Écault Beach, located on the Opal Coast, offers total immersion in the wild nature of this unspoiled region. By taking a path through the dunes and the pine forest, you will discover a fine sandy beach stretching as far as the eye can see, bordered by the North Sea. The sea wind and the sound of the waves create a soothing atmosphere.
