Cape Blanc Nez (literally 'Cape White Nose' in English) was a cape on the Côte d'Opale, in the Pas-de-Calais département, in northern France.
The cliffs of chalk are very similar to those at the other side of the Channel in England. Cap Blanc Nez is no longer a cape but a cliff that is topped by an obelisk commemorating the Dover Patrol which kept the Channel free from U-boats during World War I.
