Day trip to France
Discussion
Hi all. As the title says I fancy a day trip to France however I can only get away for one day and I would like some suggestions on where to go. I am thinking about heading south and exploring the coast. I have heard that Boulogne is nice.
Now for my main question about breaking down. I do not have breakdown cover however should something happen what will I need to do and what organisation do I contact? My car is reliable but its always best to know just in case s**t hits the fan.

Tickets all booked for the 15th and I have to say I am looking forward to driving down the D940 to Boulogne. It looks like a nice stretch of road with some good views. So my plan to date is to have a spot of lunch in Boulogne and then maybe drive further down the coast. I will defo update this thread with pictures when I come back and will probably do a little write. I am still as interested as ever in suggestions and recommendations on places to see and go so keep em coming guys.

Have a look at my recent thread short Ypres road trip. Can also highly recommend coast road from calais to le touquet and then heading towards st omer.
Enjoy!
Hi. Looks like you had a great trip. Le touquet has now been added to my route and the coast road D940 is the one I will take I did think about Belgium but unlike you I only have a day and their is a lot of places I would like to see in Belgium so I am saving it for another time. What is St Omer like?Enjoy!

lol Yeah I guess they can be like that but I have never had a problem with them. What is good to see Rounen? The ferry I am taking leaves at 8 in the morning and I catch the one at 10 in the evening back to the UK. I bought the travel insurance that covers me if I would miss one.

Travel the d940 to framezelle, I've driven this road loads of times, don't forget whichever way you go from Calais you'll need to cough for a toll eventually , except towards Belgium. Don't forget also no radar detectors allowed and take yellow vests for all on board.
