Normandiet bedste strande

I løbet af 79-årsdagen for D-Day den 6. juni 2023 havde vi den utrolige mulighed for at besøge stranden, og det efterlod os virkelig overvældet af glæde. At være i Normandiet er noget, vi absolut elsker, og vi mener, at D-Day-fejringerne er den perfekte tid til at opleve dens skønhed.

Utah beach served as one of the two DDay landing beaches for the Americans. Although the number of casualties here was lower compared to Omaha beach, it doesn't diminish the significance of this place. The beachfront is adorned with several memorials and sculptures, and there is also a well-maintained museum, dining options, and restroom facilities. If you happen to be in the area, it is highly recommended to take a moment to honor the sacrifices made by those who ensured our present-day freedom.

Asnelles is a pleasant, low-key resort. It essentially shuts down at the end of August, as evidenced by this photo taken in early September. The worn British flag is even displayed upside down! The Carrefour store is well-stocked, and the boulangerie is good but closes at 1:00 PM and isn't open on Thursdays. There's a tiny market on Thursdays. The biscuit shop and tea room are good. However, there's limited choice for vegetarians seeking a good meal. Le Cale offers nothing, and O Dune Zen is overpriced, now under new management, and has declined in quality. The Italian place next door appears to be permanently closed. The best option is to go self-catering. The beach is lovely and expansive at low tide, and you can walk to the Mulberry Harbour.

Vi havde en fantastisk tid på at tilbringe hele dagen på stranden i smukke etraret. Der var masser af aktiviteter for at holde os underholdt, og en bred vifte af spisemuligheder at vælge imellem. Jeg snuble over et lille bibliotek, hvor både børn og voksne kan tage en pause fra solen og nyde lidt læsningstid. Derudover kan jeg varmt anbefale at tage en kort gåtur til toppen af ​​bakkerne for at beundre den betagende udsigt. Bare en påmindelse er stranden lavet af sten, så husk det, hvis du planlægger at tilbringe hele dagen der. Udøv også forsigtighed, når det kommer til børn, der svømmer, da vandet kan være ret stærkt. Jeg håber, du har lige så stor glæde i etraret som vi gjorde.

Denne strand er perfekt til vind sport og aktiviteter. Jeg planlægger at vende tilbage med en bedre rejseplan. Derudover har stranden en rig historie og et stort tidevand. Men manglen på sol i august var lidt skuffende.

We enjoyed a beautiful sunset stroll at Green Island Beach. The parking was convenient, and when the tide recedes, there is a spacious beach and numerous rock pools to discover.
