Utah Beach was the first of the five D-Day landing beaches to be recaptured by the Allies. It was chosen to retake Cherbourg and its deep-water port. Several memorials along the beach allow visitors to rediscover the history of the landings.

The Cotentin and Bessin Marshes Regional Natural Park offers a superb diversity of landscapes shaped by water: wet meadows, coastline and dunes, heathland and hedgerows. Here, tranquility accompanies you as you cycle or take a break to observe the birds.

The church became known because a paratrooper was stuck on the church for hours during the invasion.
