Côte d'Opale er et choronym, der betegner den del af den nordvestlige kyst i den franske metropolis, som ligger nord for den picardske kyst, overfor klipperne i det sydøstlige England, grænsende op til Den engelske Kanal og Nordsøen. Édouard Lévêque, maler fra Touquet, forfatter, botaniker, er opfinderen af betegnelsen "Côte d'Opale" i februar 1911. Han kaldte således kysten mellem Le Crotoy i Somme-bugten og Équihen-Plage i Boulonnais, til ære for sit meget særegne og skiftende lys. Af alle de foreslåede betegnelser er det den eneste, der har overlevet og gjort badebyen Touquet-Paris-Plage til "perlen af Côte d'Opale". Siden da og stadig i dag, bruges denne betegnelse til at betegne hele kysten i departementet Pas-de-Calais, ja endda den i departementet Nord.
