Cayeux sur Mer

Cayeux sur Mer is a haven for beach lovers, with a beautiful wooden walkway that stretches along the shingle beach for over 2km. Here visitors can enjoy the endless horizon across the English Channel and pretty beach huts, almost all of which are individually decorated. Take to the waters for some more high-energy fun or wander through the streets of the town and take in the atmosphere before stopping off at the shops, bars and restaurants, which line the streets. The local area is ideal for those wanting to explore, with its towns and villages, farmland and forests.
