Attention ! je tiens a souligner que cette expérience a pour but de vous faire découvrir un endroit de la baie de Somme. En aucun cas vous n 'allez découvrir toute la baie de Somme...La sortie sera axée sur la découverte des phoques je précise qu'on n'est jamais certain de les voir, les oiseaux, plantes et coquillages...Ce n' est pas une grande randonnée sportive. La sortie nature sera en groupe , si votre date préférée ne figure pas dans le calendrier vous pouvez me contacter je pourrais en ajouter... même si le créneau est complet ! je suis un guide nature qualifié indépendant reconnu. Si vous avez envie de découvrir la nature avec un guide authentique de la région avec un zest d' humour vous êtes au bon endroit. Si l'humour vous déplais ou si vous espérez être seul ne vous inscrivez pas...la balade sera familiale et conviviale, tous les amoureux de nature sont les bien venus, les enfants petits et grands... Autres remarques Une sortie en privé est possible, a voir les modalités. Prévoyez une tenue adaptée pour la période d'hiver, les bottes sans oublier un coupe vent chaud, casquette ou bonnet. ( je peux dépanner pour les bottes) Il faut être présent 15 minutes avant l' heure du rendez-vous afin de pouvoir vous équiper et nous rencontrer pour partir du bon pied.
