Boulogne-sur-Mer: It is a unique place. If you take the time to explore its maze of streets, you cannot remain unmoved by its diversity. One could almost say that there is not one but several Boulognes-sur-Mer.... The low-lying part of town lives to the rhythm of the fishing port and its commercial district. The old centre, atop the cliff, takes you through two thousand years of history.
Nausicaá: Europe's largest aquarium: Listen to the call of the ocean.
Beautiful, rich, mysterious, but also so fragile. Your ocean experience starts here!
Located on the Côte d'Opale between Calais and Boulogne-sur-Mer, the Grand Site des 2 Caps is a protected natural area remarkable for the diversity of its landscapes.
It owes its name to two caps located 10 km apart as the crow flies: Cap Blanc-Nez, 134 m high, which offers panoramic views of the Pas-de-Calais strait and the English cliffs, and Cap Gris-Nez, the closest point of the French coast to England.
