Listed as a National Nature Reserve since 1987, Canche Bay is home to an exceptional variety of animals and plants. The panorama offered at the summit of this site is simply breath-taking: an incredible view of acres of wilderness. Here, you'll find a multitude of landscapes: a hilly terrain of dunes, pools and channels that evolve with the seasons and the tides.
