Nicknamed "the beach for romantics", it offers exceptional views over the Côte Fleurie and the Côte de Nacre. It's also the place to be at sunset.

Stroll around Cabourg town centre

Start your stroll through the centre of Cabourg on the Avenue de la mer: 600 metres of entirely pedestrianised streets full of little shops and restaurants.

It's the perfect place for a shopping break! Continue on to the Villa du Temps retrouvé, an open-access museum that plunges you into the world of Marcel Proust and the Belle Époque.

Cabourg town centre is also full of superb villas with a very chic feel.
