Le Crotoy is a commune in Picardie, northern France.
Le Crotoy is today an animated seaside resort whose beach is undoubtedly one of the main assets. The beach is highly unusual for northern French beaches in that it faces south.
Le Crotoy saw lengthy visits from some famous figures of French history: Joan of Arc (who was imprisoned there), Jules Verne (who wrote 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea there), the perfumer Guerlain, the painter Toulouse-Lautrec, and the novelist Colette.
