context_page_description: Cap Gris-Nez is a cape on the Côte d'Opale in the Pas-de-Calais département in northern France.
  It is between Wissant and Audresselles, in the commune of Audinghen.
  The cliffs of the cape are the closest point of France to England – 34 km from their English counterparts at Dover. Smothered in sea pinks and thrift, the cliffs are a perfect vantage point to see hundreds of ships, from oil tankers to little fishing trawlers, plying the waters below. On a clear day, the emblematic white cliffs of Dover on the English shore can be seen.
