Royale-les-Eaux
Royale-les-Eaux is a fictional town in Northern France. It features in the James Bond novels of Ian Fleming and others, particularly ''Casino Royale'' and ''On Her Majesty's Secret Service''.
==Location==
Royale-les-Eaux is a seaside resort, described in ''Casino Royale'' as being "just north of Dieppe"〔Ian Fleming, ''Casino Royale'', Ch. 2〕 and lying "near the mouth of the Somme before the flat coastline soars up from the beaches of southern Picardy to the Brittany cliffs which run on to Le Havre".〔Ian Fleming, ''Casino Royale'', Ch. 5〕 This would seem to place the town in the ''département'' of Somme, which takes its name from the river, but a telegram addressed to Bond in the same novel gives the ''département'' as the more southerly Seine-Inférieure〔Ian Fleming, ''Casino Royale'', Ch. 1〕 (which was renamed Seine-Maritime on 18 January 1955). References in ''On Her Majesty's Secret Service'' suggest yet another ''département'': when driving northwards along the N1 (now the D901), James Bond passes a Michelin road sign saying "Montreuil 5, Royale-les-Eaux 10, Le Touquet-Paris-Plage 15". After passing through Montreuil and over the Étaples-Paris railway just to the north of the town, the turning for Royale-les-Eaux is on the left.〔Ian Fleming, ''On Her Majesty's Secret Service'', Ch. 2〕 This would put Royale-les-Eaux on the coast just south of Le Touquet, perhaps in the vicinity of Stella-Plage, and in the ''département'' of Pas-de-Calais, to the north of Somme.
