The Seals and the Authie Bay. Wildlife and drone shots near the Somme Bay, France

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Top contributor and pilot Amaury Descours created this beautiful drone video from an idyllic spot on France's North Atlantic coastline. Authie Bay is created at the mouth of the river of the same name, which empties into the English Channel in the Somme department of the country's Hauts-de-France region. As you'll see in the video, Authie Bay has become a giant seal sanctuary. The bay is just a few km north of the Somme Bay, where the famous Knights of Normandy gathered for their invasion of England in 1066.

The Authie Bay is one the most beautiful bay in France, at just 2 hours from Paris.

Harbour seals and grey seals have choosen the peaceful sand banks of the bay to rest at low tide.
