Day 142 Thursday 30.06.2011

Location:   Berck Sur Mer Aire, Northern France

Long / Lat N 50º23.796’ E 1º33.831’

Today our engine battery let us down again so we found a Burstner Motorhome dealer and bought a new one. The dealer had a good accessory shop co-ordinates N50º24.022’ E1º35.904’.

We are now parked in the Berck Sur Mer Aire it’s next to the marina and very close to the sea, bathing is forbidden due to the strong currents.

We walked along the sea front for about 15 minutes to the town, when the tide went out there was a colony of seals sunbathing on the sandbanks.

It costs 6.00€ to park here and someone called to collect the money, there is no electricity and the water is free. The parking bays are marked out and are not very wide so when the aire is busy you wouldn’t be able to sit outside next to your van.

While we were staying here there was a Friterie set up in the car park next to the marina.
