Pas-de-Calais is the closest point to England, with only 33 km separating Cap Gris-Nez from the Kent coast. The 6 to 8 metre tidal range and powerful currents in the strait make it one of the most complex maritime zones in the world. Over 600 vessels transit daily through this corridor, one of the busiest on the planet.
The Opal Coast between Calais and Berck offers spectacular white cliffs, unspoilt bays, and vast beaches. Boulogne-sur-Mer, France's premier fishing port, depends entirely on tide times for its trawlers. Shore fishing on the rocky platforms of Cap Gris-Nez and the vast sandy foreshores around Wissant and Ambleteuse offer some of the finest spots on the northern coast.
