whats there to do around Calais?
Depends what it costs.
Only 20 quid for a car and up to 9 people, plus free box of wine and buy one get one free on ferry meal means it doesn't cost a lot

i think its getting to the point where the closest places to the tunnel arent really much cheaper on fuel, cigarettes and alcohol.
it would make for a fun day out though, and is pretty inexpensive.
Theres some good WW2 bunkers, etc just south of Calais, think theres also a underground V2 base nearby. Drink wise I wouldn't bother, smoking wise probably still worth it but Belgium is cheaper. Don't forget the £ to Euro is crap at the moment. For day trips Boulogne is a lot more historic
Le Touquet is about 40 minutes down the road and is a lovely little town.
Also on the way there you can stop at the Auchan hypermarket. Far cheaper than at Calais and better stuff. I can't remember exactly where it is though.
The old town of Boulogne is rather nice as well.
I hate France... I always nearly get run over when I go there... France hates me...
might do the WW2 museum visit
You guys are lucky that you can do it as a day trip. That would be great..
I went there for a week end once. Shopping is great there and the beaches are nice![]()
