Hi,
I was on a thread a few months ago about arriving in Dunkerque and avoiding the nasty bits, and was told to keep left, head up for the Route Des Dunes and cut down the farm track into Loon Plage. Because it was 5:30am local time and still dark, I missed the track but went through Mardyck and picked up the road to Loon Plage with no bother. I then headed down to Craywick and on through Brouckerque, Bergues, Hondschoote, Houtem and Adinkerke to De Panne.
I'm going again in June. I want to go to De Panne again but I don't want to do that detour if I can help it (pretty as Bergues is, I have lots of other pretty places to see). I'll also have the benefit of daylight.
Is it really so bad, going through Grande-Synthe? Suggestions, please?
