Our opinion on the Digue Beach

Adresse of the Digue Beach : D940 62231 Sangatte

Digue Beach is the most central beach in Sangatte. It extends along the dam promenade (not in very good shape) between the dunes and the beach where we find a few houses behind the dam and a great view of the sea. The beach is vast and everyone will find a spot to lay out his or her towel. However, there is no lifeguard.

There are several breakwaters, so you must be prudent when practicing water sports.

Note that this beach is uniquely accessible from stairs. The main access is found near the town hall and near a campsite called Les Noires Mottes.

Photo of the central beach of Sangatte in France

This central beach is bordered by a dam. Access to the beach by stairs. We can see the several breakwaters in this photo.

A nice pedestrian promenade is located along the dam and there are a few houses and wooden chalets . We can easily join Blériot Beach.

Near the dune (behind the dam) we find several constructions. It is possible to rent part of the dune to have a direct access to the beach, for the habitants of these houses.
