Welcome to Fort-
Mahon-Plage !
Hair in the wind, life is more beautiful
Where is this famous Fort ?
Don't even look for it
there is no Fort in Fort-Mahon-Plage !
Where does this name came from ?
In Picardian, a "Mahon" is a poppy, but, in the old days, "mahon" or
"mahonnage" meant a fight.
It is told that a little fort has been built
deep in the dunes for the defence of the cost and the Baie d’Authie
against a landing of former english people. According to the elder,
this little fort has been so called, after an inspection of an officer
named mahon.

Where could we admire the Seal ?
- in Berck Sur Mer in the Authie Bay 20km (12 miles)
- In the Bay of Somme 20km ( 12 miles)
- At the Pointe du Hourdel 35km (21 miles)
Seals forage at sea. Harbour seals can go as far as
60km (37 miles) from their resting sites. Some live in harbours and rivers.
Grey seals travel much further. Seals can sleep in the water, this is called
“bottling”. Comfortable in the water and by nature curious, seals regularly get
close to the boats, drifting objects…
The seals use the intertidal areas that emerge at
low tide to rest out of the water . This is a very important time that allow
them to regenerate their energy. For more safety they gather together. Uneasy
on land, they are continuously on alert and go into the water as soon as they
feel in danger. That’s why they always rest on a sand bank near a relatively deep
channel so as to be able to escape easily. During breeding and moulting
periods, seals need to be out of the water more often. At rising tide, they adopt the
“Banana” position to stay dry for
the longest time possible.

Our Advices
To Have an Eco-Friendly
attitude
Pay attention to natural spaces, don't crush the seagrass and
preserves the dunes.
Avoid off-pist and reach paths and bridges.
Observe the fauna with eyes ! Stay away to not disturb it.
Discover the bay with a nature guide. He will for sure let you
know about the secret of our beautiful environment
If you want to taste the plants of the bay, take scissors to cut
them. By fishing respect the size.
Take part to the cleaning of the beach you will see it is really
cool and friendly
If you smoke use a beach ashtray.
No pee in the sea, fish are swimming in it !
Prefer ecocups and nice flasks for your picnic.
Do not let your waste on the beach
If your dog do what is need to be done, pick it up with a little
bag and throw it in a bin.
Come to the office and we will explain you the waste sorting.
Go to the city hall to pick up recyclable bags for free
To move around the town,nothing beats cycling!
Think locally grown products, meet local producers, and
shop at our local markets
Make duffel bags your first choice instead of plastic bags,
because the plastic is not fantastic!
A gift to offer ? A souvenirs to bring bag ? Think local and
made in France.Fort-Mahon-Plage Tourism
