Regular Flights to Le Touquet

The jewel of the North French coast, if you have never been, lose no time and visit it soon.

Le Touquet airport is only a short walk or a very short taxi ride from the town centre. Situated on the coast, around 38 miles South of Calais, Le Touquet became as fashionable as the Riviera in the 1930's, when Noel Coward, P G Wodehouse and others entertained in villas amongst the pinewoods, and luxury hotels were built for the weekending English aristocracy.

Today Le Touquet is still the 'Cannes of the Cote d'Opale' and is also known as 'Paris-Plage' for its role as the favourite beach resort for well off Parisians. Its casino, chic designer shops, art galleries, golf course, flower- trimmed lawns and wealth of cafés and restaurants makes Le Touquet an excellent and attractive choice for a civilised short break and an ideal base for exploring Northern France.
