Maréis, Étaples-sur-Mer and Le Touquet-Paris-Plage: an immersion between fishing, heritage and seaside elegance

This escapade offers groups a complete discovery of the Pas-de-Calais coastline, structured around three highlights: Étaples-sur-Mer, a historic fishing town, an immersive visit to Maréis, an oceanographic center dedicated to sea fishing, and Le Touquet-Paris-Plage, an emblematic seaside resort on the Côte d’Opale.

This program allows you to explore a rich and contrasting territory, where maritime traditions, know-how and the art of seaside living come together. A combination of educational immersion and pleasant strolls, this day is an ideal destination for groups.

Étaples-sur-Mer, a town deeply linked to fishing

The tour begins in Étaples-sur-Mer, an ancient fishing port whose history is closely linked to the sea. For generations, the town has lived to the rhythm of sailors, sea departures and the fish trade.

This maritime past is still very much alive today and is an essential part of the local identity.

Visitors discover :

the history of the fishing port
maritime traditions
the daily lives of sailors and their families

This first step sets the scene and explains the importance of fishing in the development of the region.

Maréis, an immersion into the world of sea fishing

The visit continues with Maréis, a unique discovery center dedicated to sea fishing. Located in Étaples-sur-Mer, this site offers an immersive experience to understand the daily life of fishermen.

Unlike a conventional museum, Maréis immerses visitors in a living, interactive universe.

An immersive, educational tour

The tour follows a real fishing campaign:

setting sail
life on board
fishing techniques
back to port

Guided by professionals, often from the maritime world, groups benefit from concrete, accessible explanations.

A discovery of marine fauna

Channel fish
shellfish
rays and other species

Some basins allow direct interaction, bringing the visit even more to life.

Understanding the fish’s journey

Le Touquet-Paris-Plage, elegance and openness to the sea

The day continues with a visit to Le Touquet-Paris-Plage, an emblematic seaside resort on the Côte d’Opale. Renowned for its elegance and atmosphere, it offers an interesting contrast to Étaples-sur-Mer.

Le Touquet seduces with :

its large sandy beach
its varied architecture (villas, hotels)
its chic yet friendly atmosphere

the waterfront
