Le Touquet has a reputation as the most elegant holiday resort of northern France, the playground of rich Parisians, with many luxury hotels. Hôtel Barrière Le Westminster, Le Touquet, France.
Since the mid-1990s, Le Touquet’s villas have become extremely fashionable amongst architecture lovers throughout Europe, rediscovering the “folie” of seaside architecture of both the Roaring Twenties and the 1930s. The most famous local architect is Louis Quetelart.
Hippolyte de Villemessant (1812–1879), founder and owner of the Paris newspaper, Le Figaro. At the time it was an area of wild sand dunes and forest - part of a hunting estate. Its name came from a Picard word meaning ‘corner’, and was originally applied to the area of coast nearby. It became known as “Paris by the sea”, and strict building regulations encouraged the most talented architects to create imaginative and innovative developments.
In 1902 Allen Stoneham and John Whitley bought the land, through their company Le Touquet Syndicate Ltd, and were instrumental in developing the town into a golf and gambling resort. In 1909, H. G. Wells and Amber Reeves fled to Le Touquet in an abortive elopement. The two returned to Britain after a number of weeks, though Amber later gave birth to Wells's daughter, Anna-Jane Blanco White, after the relationship ended.
During most of World War I Le Touquet was home of the Duchess of Westminster's (No 1 British Red Cross Society) Hospital for wounded British troops. The #2 Canadian Stationary Hospital had the distinction of being the first Canadian Unit to land on French soil. No. 2 Stationary opened at the Hotel du Golf at Le Touquet on November 27, 1914. All the 142 British Commonwealth war graves in Le Touquet's Communal Cemetery in Avenue de 18 Jun are from the hospitals. The graves occupy a plot by the cemetery entrance. (The cemetery also contains French and Italian war graves.) In the same cemetery a wooden obelisk was erected by the commune's lifeboatmen in honour of the British.

Photography Location #12 - Beaches & Caen Normandy France
In 2013 we went on a Holiday to Normandy France. Rented a holiday home and my family joined us from England, we of course traveled from Germany. Holiday home was great but the admin and owners only spoke French, luckily Karen does too!
I had only just got the Nikon D5200 and was using the 18-105mm Kit lens.
Weather was crazy, on the day we arrived Karen and I got caught on the edge of a tornado. Vans off the road, trees broken like matchsticks. Later when these pictures were taken a day or two later the heat was so extreme even the beach was unbearable. Lovely place though, would have preferred to have more time and the AIS lenses. :)
In some of the beach pictures you can still see the concrete blocks (Mulberry harbour) out in the sea which were used in D-Day.

I will be posting a series from Strasbourg from the same holiday, when I have sorted them.
