Tourism in Calvados: activities for all the family
Cap vers l'Ouest - Rich history in Calvados
Fill up on history with D-Day Beaches and the many museums dedicated to the Second World War. Climb the cliffs of’Arromanches and contemplate the remains of the artificial harbour below. Continue on to Colleville-sur-Mer, where you'll be moved by the pathways of the’Omaha Beach overlooking the beach. Are you ready to step back in time? Then head to the medieval town of Bayeux and relive the famous Battle of Hastings at Bayeux Tapestry Museum.
Heading east - From Cabourg to Honfleur
To stroll through the streets of the charming towns of the Côte Fleurie in Normandy: cross the Grand Hôtel de Cabourg to the seaside, slip into the shoes of a movie star on the Les Planches de Deauville and stop off at a café terrace around the Vieux Bassin d'Honfleur to admire the houses with their slate-covered facades.
Then venture into the Pays d'Auge: apple trees in blossom, Norman cows and half-timbered houses await you.
Heading south - The Medieval and relief landscapes of Orne
The rolling, rocky landscapes of the Suisse Normande, in the south of the Calvados département, offer a superb playground for hikers, climbers and paragliders. The views are breathtaking!
