Welcome to funky's new Wissan and Calais Page.

<font color="blue">WISSANT.

Is the unspoilt pearl of the Côte d'Opale and it really merits its name. The Bay of WISSANT is outstandingly beautiful, a crescent of fine sand between the ""Cap Blanc-Nez"" and ochre-coloured rocks of Gris-Nez. This is a unique environment set in a site protected by the French authorities! A fishing town where traditions are respected. Large, portly and multiple-coloured boats seem to slumber in the lanes as they await the signal to fish. The resort also has a vocation for sports etc.

CALAIS.

For the British, Calais is the gateway to continental Europe. It is the largest passenger port in France, a city of lacemaking and the town with the biggest population in the Pas-de-Calais. This region is successfully developing facilities for short stays. This formula will attract the visitor seeking a complete change of surroundings and who would like to take part in leisure activities for the weekend. As a bonus, the visitor will be able to go on a short cruize to Britain.
