The beach hut, Bar and pub in Boulogne-sur-Mer, France
La Kabane de la plage is a bar and pub on the Promenade Saint-Martin, right along the seafront in Boulogne-sur-Mer. The terrace faces the water, and the decor uses coastal details like pale wood and blue-and-white tones.
The bar opened in recent years to give visitors to the seafront promenade a place to sit and drink by the water. Before it opened, this stretch near the red lighthouse jetty had no comparable spot to stop and linger.
The bar sits at the entrance to the red lighthouse jetty, where people look out over the harbor while having a drink. The wooden furniture and parasols match the simple, no-fuss style typical of this stretch of coast.
The place is open mainly in the afternoon and evening, and later into the night during summer. It is worth arriving on the early side when the weather is good, since the terrace fills up quickly.
The bar is one of the few spots along this stretch of coast where you can watch the sunset directly over the water without leaving your seat. Many visitors come specifically at that time of day to follow the changing light over the harbor.
