Friday, November 13th: Settle in and start the weekend around a good meal

If you arrive early enough, take advantage of the salon being open until 7 pm for a first look. Otherwise, save the meetings for the following day and take your time settling into the villa, according to the check-in times agreed upon when you made your reservation.

For dinner, La Dune aux Loups , atLocated at 214 Avenue de la Dune aux Loups, this restaurant offers French bistro-style cuisine that showcases regional and seasonal produce. Its leafy setting, opposite the equestrian center, extends the ambiance of your stay in the forest.

Saturday, November 14: Literary gatherings and dinner in the city center

Start the day with the included breakfast at Villa Vent Couvert , then join the lounge, open from 10am.

For lunch, the on-site catering allows you to stay in the lounge between appointments. You can also plan a break in town, taking into account the times of your next meeting.

In the evening, change the atmosphere at Caravane , located at 71-73 rue de Metz . The restaurant offers cuisine inspired by various regions of the world, including a selection of sushi. A great suggestion for extending your day in the heart of Le Touquet.

How to organize your weekend in Le Touquet?

To make the most of the three days, consider arriving on Thursday, January 28th , subject to accommodation availability. This will allow you to settle in before the event begins.

If you're coming mainly for Sunday's race, arriving on Friday or Saturday allows you to get your bearings before the big event. Plan your route to the seafront and book your restaurant in advance: it's better to have these details sorted so you can dedicate your day to enjoying the spectacle.

On Sunday, allow yourself enough time to reach the spectator areas before the start. And if your schedule permits, extending your stay until Monday, February 1st, will give you time for dinner and a final night at the venue after the race.
