On the map
A port city in the Pas-de-Calais department, in the Hauts-de-France region, Calais faces England at the narrowest point of the strait that bears its name. The leading passenger port of continental Europe, it is marked by its lace-making history, its lighthouses and Rodin's Burghers of Calais monument. Dune ridges, sandy beaches and the headlands of the Opal Coast border its wind-swept shoreline.
