Can anyone suggest anywhere good in france, preferably not to far from calais to kitesurf?

we stayed in boulogne a couple of weeks ago, there were a few kitesurfers out at le touquet, looked good. hardelot also looked good (both just south of boulogne). les hemmes just east of calais was good for boards / buggies, but the low tide is miles from the car park, and it goes from miles out to right up to the car park in not much time at all. so not sure about that one, although if you don't mind a long walk out at low tide it was good (and 10miles long!)

I've heard that le touquet might be a good spot!
Thanks for the info

not yet, just planning it for later on in the year. Hopefully my next trip will be more successful with the wind!
