A February 2016 hop across the Channel to Calais: rows of shuttered white beach huts, empty winter dunes and a wide grey-blue sea all to ourselves.
In February 2016 we hopped across the Channel and had Calais beach almost entirely to ourselves: rows of shuttered white beach huts, low dunes, and the harbour mouth off in the distance.

Out of season is the best season for a beach that spends its summer facing England.
