International Kite Festival
Every other (even numbered) year Berck-sur-Mer also hosts the World Kite Championships. The wide sandy beaches, the wind and the openness of the sea at Berck-sur-Mer attracts wind-related sports. The first photograph of kites on the beach was made in 1887. The beginnings of the International Festival were established in 1987 and have grown into 10 days of international display and interplay.
