Scenic Coastal Drive & Free Time

Dunkirk

by coach & by foot

Discover the Opal Coast, where history and natural beauty come together.

Your experience begins with a drive to Calais, where you'll stop for photos at the famous Burghers of Calais sculpture, a powerful tribute to the city's medieval past.

Next, take in the views at Cap Blanc Nez, a dramatic white-cliff headland offering sweeping panoramas of the English Channel. Your journey will continue to Cap Gris Nez, the closest point to England, where another scenic photo stop awaits.

There will be a comfort break in nearby Audinghen, before heading to the seaside town of Wimereux. Here you will have free time to explore at your own pace. Stroll along the promenade, relax at a café, or browse the local shops it’s up to you.

Finally, sit back and enjoy the scenic drive back to Dunkirk.
