For water sports, walks along the sea front or seafood tastings, the seaside resorts on the Côte de Nacre offer a colourful programme for a great holiday in Caen-la-Mer!
Try your hand at picking shellfish at the seaside
Try your hand at shellfish picking at low tide. You will see experienced shellfish pickers who can give you tips for a successful catch! For nature lovers, make the most of the occasion for a long walk in the Orne estuary and the Pointe du Siège. You will see a whole host of migratory birds. Go up in the world with the 171 steps in the Ouistreham lighthouse. A breathtaking view over the Orne estuary is guaranteed!
A stroll on the Côte de Nacre
To make the most of the sea air in peace and quiet, there is nothing better than setting down your towel on the sandy beaches of Caen-la-Mer. A spot of sandcastle building for some, a chance to take it easy for others. A real holiday feeling! Take the time to enjoy a walk along the endless beaches and see the famous small bathing cabins, the symbols of the Côte de Nacre sea front. For a great wellness experience, head for the Ouistreham thalassotherapy centre! At the Thalazur Thalassotherapy Centre, facing the sea, an ultra-relaxing programme awaits you. Massages, balneotherapy, sauna, hammam, sea-water pool… What more could anyone want?
Fall for our gourmet addresses
Holidays are also a great time to try some tempting local specialities! And nobody will say no to our traditional snacks with waffles, ice creams or cakes. Whether you prefer shellfish, Normandy specialities or tapas on the sunny terraces, you will find plenty of bars and restaurants on the coast. The opportunity to share a great meal at the waterside!
A weekend at the sea is also an opportunity to taste a plate of oysters and a good glass of white wine!
