Crossing the Bay of the Somme from Saint-Valery-sur-Somme to Le Crotoy

The hike starts in the town of Saint-Valéry-sur-Somme and goes to the town of Le Crotoy through the bay of the Somme (it can be done in the other direction). The crossing is easy and is accessible to all. WARNING: the bay of the Somme is an environment in perpetual evolution and it is dangerous to venture alone if you don't know the place. Before leaving, it is necessary to look at the tide times, the crossing being done only at low tide. You should also bring boots or shoes that can go in the water. For all these reasons, it is better to go through guides who will also give you explanations on the life of the bay.

Once the crossing of the bay is over, you can come back to Saint-Valéry-sur-Somme by a tourist train.

The bay of the Somme is a beautiful place, you can even see seals sometimes. The visit of Saint-Valéry-sur-Somme and Le Crotoy is also worth the detour.
