Casino de Berck-Sur-Mer

Berck (or Berck-sur-Mer) is a commune in the Pas-de-Calais department in northern France. Lying in the Marquenterre Regional Park, this is a great time to explore indigenous flora and fauna. Viewing the town, you could break it down into 2 sections – to the west, the seaside resort area of Berck-sur-Mer, and to the east, the fishing town of Berck-Ville. Choose trendy or historical, or make a well-rounded trip by checking out both parts. Berck-sur-Mer is considered to be a family-friendly resort, with its clean beaches and promenade. There are various activities to keep the kids entertained like go-karting and camping, as well as having restaurants and bars for the parents. It’s quite a scenic town too, having been awarded ‘three flowers’, denoting its floral beautification. Being a seaside community, this is a great time to not only explore regional cuisine, but a wide selection of seafood dishes.

Back at the hotel in the Gourmand Lobster, look for traditional French cuisine with a heavy slant toward seafood (lobster, naturally, being the specialty). For more options, try various venues in town or ask staff for recommendations on restaurants nearby.

Attractions/NightLife

Take a break from the casino floor and enjoy your favourite cocktails in the Casino Bar. Find your favourite pints in Le Cercle d’Or. During the day, check out the Church of Saint Jean Baptiste, restored in 1954 and with carvings dating back to the 15th century. The Church of Notre-Dame des Sables was built in 1886. Head to the local beach for sunning and swimming. Bring the kids to enjoy mini-golfing, go-karting or grabbing ice cream. Visit the Municipal Museum, with works by Manet, Lepic and Boudin, among others. Enjoy relaxing strolls along the promendade, though the old part of town and its fishing roots, or admiring the well-though out beautification of the area.
