Where to see the famous beach huts in Normandy?

Let's go in search of these famous beach houses


Beach huts have been around since the 19th century so that bathers can change clothes in the shade near the sea.

Take advantage of your stay in Caen to discover them.



The beach huts of Ouistreham

20 minutes from your hotel in Caen

The beach huts watch over the tides facing the English Channel.

If there were nearly 500 of them in the middle of the 20th century, they have suffered from the storms and now number only a hundred or so.

All white with black roofs, they are managed by the town of Ouistreham.



Blue and white on the beach at Cabourg

30 minutes from your hotel in Caen

On one of the most beautiful beaches in Normandy with fine sand, the beach cabins of Cabourg are an integral part of the landscape.

You can't miss them: they have vertical stripes of white and sky blue.

Usually the door is also painted white to make it easy to distinguish.

 

The artistic cabins of Deauville

50 minutes from your hotel in Caen

You have never seen them on the beach in Deauville?

But you've probably already walked the town's famous boards. And yes! The 450 beach huts are behind every green door on the Promenade.

Although they are very popular, tourists prefer to take a picture of themselves with the inscription of their favourite actor right next to them.



The typical Normandy cabins in Trouville

51 minutes from your hotel in Caen

On sunny days, it is often too late to have the chance to rent one of the 206 beach cabins in Trouville.

The white doors have a sky blue outline. Only 150 of them have a sea view, a unique feature on the Normandy coast.



Colour at Gouville-sur-Mer

1.5 hours from your hotel in Caen

The beach huts of Gouville are now an attraction in their own right.

As you walk along the sandy beach, you are bound to see one. They are white and each has a different coloured roof.

Red, pink, yellow, blue... Thanks to their location high on a dune, they dominate the sea and offer incredible sunsets to their owners.

Don't wait any longer and book now your 4-star hotel in the city centre of Caen at the Best Western Plus Le Moderne!
