A Hidden Gem on the Normandy Coast
Étretat’s dramatic cliffs are undoubtedly the star attraction of this charming Normandy town. The cliffs, shaped by centuries of erosion, are not only a stunning natural wonder but also a popular site for photographers and nature lovers. The Arch and Needle formations are the most famous, offering breathtaking views over the English Channel.
A walk along the cliff-top paths is an unforgettable experience, with panoramic views of the coastline, ideal for capturing stunning photos. For those seeking adventure, consider a guided hike or even a sea kayaking tour to see the cliffs from a different angle.
A Fusion of Nature and Art
Étretat itself offers more than just scenic views – it’s a delightful seaside town brimming with culture and history. Stroll along its cobbled streets, explore the quaint shops, and enjoy fresh seafood in local restaurants with views of the coast. The Étretat Beach is perfect for a relaxing day by the sea or a paddle in the waves.
Don’t miss the Eglise Notre-Dame-de-l’Assomption, an elegant church perched near the cliffs, with a unique architectural style and beautiful stained-glass windows. For those interested in the town’s artistic heritage, Étretat has inspired several famous painters, including Claude Monet, and you can visit the Falaise d’Aval to see where he captured his iconic landscape.
