Le Touquet
France, France
Le Touquet, officially Le Touquet‑Paris‑Plage, is a chic seaside resort on the Opal Coast in northern France, set in the Pas‑de‑Calais department along the English Channel.
It is known for its wide, seven‑kilometre sandy beach, backed by dunes and a fragrant pine forest, creating a natural setting that blends sea, sand, and woodland. Developed in the late 19th century as a fashionable getaway for Parisians, it still carries an elegant, Belle‑Époque‑style atmosphere with bourgeois villas, colourful beach huts, and a lively town centre filled with cafés, boutiques, and cultural events.
The resort also offers a strong sports and leisure culture, including golf, horse racing, land sailing, surfing, and an iconic casino that once drew high‑society visitors and even inspired elements of Ian Fleming’s Casino Royale.
