Experience D-Day by following in the footsteps of soldiers at Utah Beach, explore Mont Saint-Michel by walking across the bay, your toes in the sand, or discover the coastline by trying sand yachting or shore fishing. Lots of different activities are available.

In La Manche, your stay can be organised around various educational themes, including science, sustainable development, sport, media, or the arts, among others.
