Overview

Sainte-Cécile is a kitesurf spot on the Côte d'Opale (Pas-de-Calais), between Le Touquet and Hardelot. This quieter beach village offers a less crowded alternative to the busier resorts nearby, with a good sandy beach exposed to South to South-West winds.

Large tidal range — check tide times. A local favourite for riders looking for a calmer spot along the Opal Coast.
