An industrial hall dedicated to the sport of skiing
In the heart of the Saint-Pierre district, the Zap'Ados Indoor Skatepark occupies a former industrial hall converted into a 2,400 m² indoor sports and social complex. Ramps, bowl, street area and various modules welcome skaters, BMX riders, rollerbladers and rigid scooter enthusiasts from 3 years old, all year round, with qualified sports instructors present at each session.

While not mandatory, booking a time slot is possible on-site. Access to the equipment requires completing an authorization form, available on-site or online.

Outdoors: the Calais Beach Skatepark
For those who want to ride with the wind in their hair, the Calais Beach Skatepark awaits on the Gaston Berthe seawall. With its 4,000 m² of concrete facing the English Channel, it's the largest outdoor skatepark in the Hauts-de-France region: bowls, street park, flow park, and a children's area, all free and open to the public. On sunny days, it takes over from Zap'Ados under the open sky, with the Dragon of Calais in the background and the ferries on the horizon.
