Bercke Plage

Bercke Plage

Bercke Plage at the south of Pas d’Callais is ordinary. Out of season run down near unchanged faded resort:Yet so very French. The main street is dreary and the hotels typically dated. Alighting from the bus from Etaples, a sanitary orthopedic shop window display is clearly unchanged since Sylvia Plath may have glanced in to it. So walk the beach to Stella Plage and Le Torquet Paris Plage: Some 15 miles north. Giant waves of chalk hills inland define the coast up to Bulougne and Dunkirque.
