Coastal scenery

Attraction Introduction

Cliffs of Etretat, located on the coast of Normandy, France, is renowned for its white limestone cliffs and natural sea arches. Long-term wave erosion has sculpted the rock formations into an elephant's trunk shape, creating a striking contrast with the Atlantic coastline. A walking trail atop the cliffs offers panoramic views of the bay and the rocky landscape. It is one of Normandy's most iconic natural coastal attractions, emphasizing the unique geological features sculpted by natural forces.

How to Get There

You can drive there from Rouen or Le Havre, the drive takes about 1–1.5 hours. Public transport is limited; you can take a train to Le Havre and then transfer to a bus. Once in town, you'll need to hike up the cliffside trail for views. Parking is available within the town.

Travel Tips

The cliffside walkway has a steep slope, and some areas lack guardrails, so please be careful. The wind can be strong, and the weather can change rapidly. Sunset offers the best time for photography with its softer light.
