Normandy is a region of powerful contrasts — dramatic cliffs, quiet fishing villages, historic beaches, and pastoral countryside. Planning a trip here means embracing a slower rhythm, from coastal walks to charming market towns, all woven into your custom Normandy itinerary.

Where history rises from the sea

Nature’s sculpted masterpiece on the Channel coast

Shorelines that shaped the course of history
A charming medieval town with a quiet elegance, Bayeux invites you to slow down and wander. Explore the remarkable Bayeux Tapestry, stroll past half-timbered houses and riverside paths, and admire the soaring Gothic cathedral at the town’s heart. It’s an ideal base for discovering the surrounding countryside and historic coast.
Famous for its dramatic white cliffs and natural arches, Étretat is one of Normandy’s most unforgettable landscapes. Walk the cliff-top trails for sweeping Channel views, explore the pebble beaches below, and visit the gardens overlooking the sea. The play of light on the chalk cliffs has inspired artists for generations.
With its picturesque harbor, narrow lanes, and slate-fronted houses, Honfleur feels like a painting come to life. Enjoy the vibrant art scene, stroll the Vieux Bassin surrounded by cafés, and discover the wooden church of Sainte-Catherine. This seaside gem blends maritime heritage with timeless charm.
Rouen is a city of impressive contrasts — medieval streets, vibrant markets, and a cathedral immortalized by Monet. Explore the old town’s timbered houses, learn about Joan of Arc’s story, and enjoy the lively energy of its cafés and shops. Rouen makes Norman history feel vivid and immediate.
One of France’s most iconic sights, Mont-Saint-Michel rises dramatically from tidal flats along the coast. Climb its winding village streets, explore the abbey perched at the summit, and take in panoramic views shaped by shifting tides. Visiting here feels like stepping into another world.
Elegant and refined, Deauville pairs beach-town ease with a touch of glamour. Walk the boardwalk lined with colorful parasols, browse upscale boutiques, and enjoy the town’s refined Belle Époque architecture. Deauville’s relaxed sophistication makes it a favorite seaside escape.
A lively city with deep historical roots, Caen blends modern life with medieval heritage. Visit the vast Caen Memorial Museum, wander through the ducal castle built by William the Conqueror, and explore leafy parks and riverside paths. Caen offers a thoughtful balance of culture and history.
Known for its long sandy beach and Belle Époque atmosphere, Cabourg is a serene coastal getaway. Enjoy gentle seaside walks, explore the elegant beachfront promenade, and soak in the town’s romantic ambiance — famously loved by Marcel Proust.
A working port with authentic maritime spirit, Fécamp offers rugged beauty and rich cultural heritage. Visit the Benedictine Palace, explore the fishing quays, and admire the dramatic cliffs that frame the coastline. This is Normandy at its most genuine and windswept.
One of France’s most beautiful villages, Barfleur charms with granite houses, a tranquil harbor, and windswept coastal paths. Watch fishing boats return with the day’s catch, explore quiet coves, and enjoy the slow, peaceful rhythm of this eastern Cotentin gem.
Normandy is most enjoyable from May through September, when days are mild and ideal for coastal walks, countryside drives, and exploring historic sites. Spring and fall offer fewer crowds and soft, atmospheric light across the coast.
Plan at least five to seven days to experience the region at a comfortable pace. This gives you time to visit highlights like Mont-Saint-Michel, Étretat, the D-Day beaches, and charming towns such as Honfleur or Bayeux.
Yes. Normandy pairs naturally with Paris — trains and highways make the region easy to reach in about two hours. Many travelers start in Paris and continue to Normandy for a coastal, history-rich extension planned around their interests.
