Cran aux Oeufs Cliff

Highlight • Beach

This cliff owes its name to its atypical shape, similar to giant rock eggs. From here you have a beautiful view of the coastline and the limestone cliffs of Dover.

At Cran Poulet you will discover a striking piece of history that stands out against the rugged coastline, with the sea crashing against its time-worn walls. This World War II bunker was part of the German fortifications along the Brittany coast and provides a striking contrast to the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape.

Cap Gris-Nez Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

Located near the town of Audinghen, the Cap Gris-Nez lighthouse illuminates the Pas de Calais coast. The first lighthouse was built in 1861; this tower was electrified in 1869 and was destroyed by the Germans in the summer of 1944. The tower was rebuilt on the old walls in 1952. The lighthouse has been a listed building since 2010, and the CROSS Gris Nez is located at its foot.

Cap Gris-Nez Viewpoint

Highlight • Other

This sandstone and clay cliff offers you a breathtaking view of the English Channel, Cape Blanc-Nez, and the bay of Wissant.

On a clear day you can see the White Cliffs of Dover. It is the closest point to England. The strait is an important crossing point for many species of migratory birds.
