The small village of Le Crotoy is part of the Baie de Somme – Picardie Maritime Regional Nature Park The town has a rich maritime and historical past and retains its special atmosphere with its colourful facades.
Let yourself be carried away by the atmosphere of Le Crotoy which has seduced many artists, including Colette, the famous writer and poetess. “I dream of Le Crotoy all the time”, said the painter beautifully, dazzled by the sumptuous lights, the ripples of sand left by the ebb and flow and “the loving exchange of skies and wet sands“.
The only beach in the north facing south, a vast expanse of fine sand where a few lagoons are enough to delight shrimp fishermen in short pants.
Feel like going green, taking care of yourself or disconnecting. Don’t hesitate, the Baie de Somme is the place to be. Here the landscapes, the lights will make you forget your daily life. Ornithology, horse riding and discovery of marine mammals… There is no shortage of nature activities.
