User reviews
"This beach in France is definitely one of my favorites. It stretches for kilometers and boasts soft, sandy shores with shallow waters. The added bonus of bars and pubs serving excellent food make it even better. I was impressed with it when I visited shortly after watching a movie. However, it's worth noting that the weather in Dunkirk can be unpredictable."
Ethan Larson
"Even though we visited the beach in October, it was easy to see that it would be a popular spot during the summer. The sand was nice, and there were plenty of cafes and snack places to choose from. The houses along the promenade were also a nice touch. However, I must admit that the prices were a bit steep."
