Holiday in France 22 - back to the channel

Image
Another early morning allowed us to see sunrise from the road just outside Dole. We drove north until we finally arrived at Wissant on the channel coast close to Calais. We have used Wissant for a number of years as a stopping place before we cross La Manche. We stay in a campsite from where you can walk to the beach. It is very scruffy and crowded and each time I swear we will not go back, but we always seem to end up there. Wissant had some hulking concrete Hitler bunkers on the beach which were torn down last year but there is still wire and rubble on the beach and a large number of wooden groins which give great photographic opportunities, especially during sunsets, which always seem to be good in Wissant.
