Etretat & Honfleur from Paris | Private Tour | Guide Optional

The Cliffs of Étretat are the town’s most iconic attraction, known for their stunning white chalk formations.

HONFLEUR. The Vieux Bassin is the heart of Honfleur, a charming old port surrounded by colorful, narrow houses. You can see reflections of the buildings in the water, combined with the boats docked.

Honfleur, France. Souvenir shops featuring regional products.

Étretat Beach is a pebble beach situated between the dramatic cliffs. While swimming may be chilly, the beach offers incredible views of the surrounding cliffs and rock formations.

The Chapel of Notre-Dame de la Garde is dedicated to fishermen. The chapel offers a peaceful atmosphere, and the view from this vantage point is stunning, encompassing both the cliffs and the sea.

The charming village of Étretat itself is worth exploring. With its traditional half-timbered houses, cozy cafés, and quaint shops, the village retains its small-town Norman charm.

Saint Catherine’s Church, Honfleur. This historic church, built in the 15th century, is the largest wooden church in France with a separate bell tower.
