Immerse yourself in Normandy's typical landscapes, superb historical and culinary heritage in a district called Pays d'Auge. You will enjoy the colourful lanscapes of green and humid meadows where cows graze to produce the best Norman cream, butter and cheeses.

The Pays d'Auge also has long sandy beaches and seaside resorts such as Deauville and Trouville, both founded in the 19th century, which developed as a result of the fashion for sea bathing under Napoleon III. It is also the place of worship dedicated to Saint Theresa of Lisieux which attracts thousands of pilgrims every year.

Private Mont Saint-Michel - Bayeux or Caen

8 tuntia
Ilmainen peruutus

Explore the island of Mont-St-Michel, one of the most popular attractions in France with its medieval village and its stunning views on the largest bay in Europe. This historical site was declared by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 1979. The place is surrounded by vast sandbanks and becomes an island only when the tides are very high. Originally called Mont-Tombe, the island became known as Mont-Saint-Michel in the 8th century due to a vision of a bishop that built the first sanctuary in 708. After that, the site turned into a pilgrimage site and in 966 a Benedictine abbey was built. Later, the island had been fortified and resisted the wars in 14th and 15th centuries. Then the site became a state prison under the French revolution until Napoleon III decided to close it in 1863. You will learn about the architecture but also the legends of the site with an opportunity to eat one the three local dishes : soufflé omelet, lamb or mussles.

Kävimme Sword Beachilla, koska seurailimme D-Day-maihinnousun rannikkoreittiä. Oletimme virheellisesti, ettei reitillä olisi niin paljon kaupallisuutta. Se on rannikkokohde, jossa on kaikki turistien ja lomalaisten ominaisuudet. Se on puhdas ja siisti. Parkkeerasimme rannan varteen (ilmainen pysäköinti). Historiansa näkee ja kokee paljon paremmin (historian kannalta) yhdessä museoista tai muistomerkeistä reitin varrella.

We visited Sword Beach because we were following the Dday landings coastal route. Mistakenly we had assumed there would not be as much commercialism along this route. It's a seaside destination with all the attributes of tourists and holiday makers. It's clean and tidy. We parked alongside the beach road (free oarking). It's history is far better seen and experienced (from the history side of things) at one of the museums, or memorials further long the route.

Vaikea löytää - Google Maps vie sinut karavaanipuistoon. Ei opasteita, ei tietoa. Löysimme osan rannasta lähellä leirintäalueen lepopistettä, mutta siellä oli varmaan paljon muutakin nähtävää. Brittiläiset rannat ovat jälleen uskomattoman huonosti hoidettu verrattuna amerikkalaisiin ja kanadalaisiin rantoihin, mikä on todella häpeällistä brittiläiselle myöntää.

Difficult to find - Google Maps takes you to a caravan park. No signage, no information. We found a part of the beach near a camper-van rest spot, but there was probably a lot more to see. Again, the British beaches are incredibly neglected in relation to the American and Canadian ones, which is genuinely shameful for a British person to admit.
