Family: Normandy Discovery

Mont-Saint-Michel, D-Day beaches, Bayeux Tapestry and Deauville.

Five days as a family to discover Normandy, between history and wide-open spaces. The route links Mont-Saint-Michel and its bay, the Bayeux Tapestry that tells of the conquest of England, Arromanches and its D-Day remains, and the Paléospace to travel back to the age of dinosaurs. It's a balanced programme: wonder, learning and seaside, suited to children and parents alike. Alternate cultural sites with breaks on the beaches or in the bocage to keep everyone fresh. Watch the spectacular tide times at Mont-Saint-Michel, and prepare younger ones for the D-Day memorial sites. Spring and summer offer the best climate to combine visits and the outdoors.
