Grand Site des Deux Caps, Protected coastal site in Nord-Pas-de-Calais, France.
The Grand Site des Deux Caps extends over 23 kilometers of coastline between Boulogne-sur-Mer and Calais, featuring chalk cliffs and natural formations.
The site has served as a crucial maritime navigation point since ancient times, with its cliffs guiding countless ships through the English Channel.
Eight municipalities within the site maintain traditional fishing practices and maritime customs that have been passed down through generations.
Visitors can access numerous marked hiking trails connecting the caps, with dedicated parking areas and information centers located at strategic points.
The Cap Gris-Nez marks the closest point between France and England, while Cap Blanc-Nez rises 150 meters above sea level.
