Sailing CALAIS to BOULOGNE SUR MER 🌊 S2. E7. Customs | Crypts | Cuisine

Hello Sailors, join us, Faye, Rob, and Yewy, as we tackle the choppy waters from Calais to Boulogne-sur-Mer and explore some unexpected aspects of marina life. This episode is packed with action, culinary delights, and a touch of history!

[00:00] Our journey begins with an unexpected visit from armed customs officers in Calais, making for an intense start to our sailing adventure. 👮🏼‍♀️#sailingtocalais #sailingpostbrexit

[3:20] We set sail from Calais, navigating the swing bridge and harbor lights. Despite the windy conditions and a reef in the main, the stunning views of Nez Blanc and Nez Gris along the northern French coast are absolutely breathtaking. 🇫🇷⛵🌊 #sailingnorthernfrance #sailingnormandy #normandy

[10:30] Arriving in Boulogne-sur-Mer, we face the rolling conditions of the marina. Ever wondered if it's possible to get seasick while docked? We're starting to think it might be! 🤢 #boulongesurmer #boulongemarina

[14:30] After securing the boat, we head to the local market to pick up some fresh fish, which Rob masterfully prepares with lentils and French sausage—a true taste of the region. 🐟 #galleychef #boatchef

[17:30] Seeking a break from the marina's motion, Faye explores the atmospheric crypts of the Basilique Notre Dame in Boulogne-sur-Mer's walled old town. It's a peaceful and historic contrast to life on the water. ⛪ #basiliquenotredame
