The reason of the name Paris-Plage is not clear to me because Le Touquet is much closer to Lille (150 km) than Paris (230 km).
I write this comment for those Belgians who are tired of the concrete wall of the Flemish coast, traffic jams, parking difficulties even in the week outside the holiday season, and who are looking for some maritime area 240 km from Brussels or 170 km of Tournai or Kortrijk.
Our visit was in June, during the week, on a beautiful sunny day.
Le Touquet was almost empty, abundant and free parking on the seafront!
I would not say that this is so during the weekends or holidays.
La raison de la dénomination Paris-Plage m'échappe car Le Touquet est bien plus proche de la grande métropole de Lille (150 km) que de Paris (230 km).
J'écris en fait ce commentaire pour les Belges qui lassés du mur de béton de la côte flamande, des embouteillages, des difficultés de parquer même en semaine hors saison de vacances, cherchent un peu d'espace maritime à 240 km de Bruxelles ou 170 km de Tournai ou Kortrijk.
Notre visite date de juin, en semaine, par une belle journée ensoleillée.
Le Touquet était presque vide; parking abondant et gratuit en bord de mer!
Je n'oserais pas dire qu'il en est ainsi les week-ends ou pendant la période de vacances.

Looks like you were here on the "perfect" day...This beach looks like its well worth a detour to see and relax a little on..and so close to amenities.
I always thought they called it Paris-Plage because they wanted Parisians to come and spend money there. But now Paris has its own "Paris-Plages" every summer on the banks of the Seine.
