Located in far Northern France near the Belgian border, this Flemish fishing village on the North Sea is one of France's busiest ports. For beach enthusiasts, there are miles of sandy beaches and water sports like windsurfing and sailing in the summer months. From late January to March, enjoy the Carnival festivities featuring elaborate costumes, boisterous sing-alongs, and exuberant celebration. Visit the Port Museum to learn of the town's maritime history, and marvel at the beauty of Liar's Tower, Saint Eloi church, and the Town Hall belfry, named a World Heritage of Humanity site by UNESCO.
