I know the drinking age on the Dutch side is 18, but what about the French side? Also, am I allowed to drink in public and/or at the beach, or do I have to at a restaurant or hotel room? No, I don’t plan I’m getting totally drunk, but as I will be having something big to celebrate, and we thought champagne would be in order. If it’s legal, that is!
