Horseback riding is available and will take riders over the shingle, as well as through woods and even splashing along the seafront.
Soak up the Romance
It's easy to get lost in the charming romance of Cayeux sur Mer, which has inspired works of art, including Lucien Adrion's La Plage, Jules Dupre's many coastal paintings and more modern works such as Michael Kenna's Pebbles and Beach House. That said, only seeing this landscape for yourself can do it true justice.
History and culture lovers should wander through the streets of the town, ducking into shops, restaurants and cafés along the way, or visit one of the historic buildings in the area.
