Le Havre pebble beach - strange design but pleasant seafront.

Étretat is a place that retains its own magic despite the tourist hustle and bustle. The imposing rocky cliffs and the roaring sea attract numerous visitors every year. The whole spectacle unfolds especially at sunset: the three rock gates - Porte d'Aval with the Aiguille, Manneporte and Porte d'Amont - glow in the warm light of the setting sun and cast long shadows on the pebble beach. This sight is unforgettable and shows why Étretat has inspired artists and hikers alike for centuries. If you are here a little off peak times, you will feel the peace and the special atmosphere of the former fishing village. The cliffs seem even more imposing and the contrast between the white limestone and the blue sea is simply fascinating. Even with the many cameras aimed at the rocks, Étretat remains an authentic place that shows nature in all its raw beauty. A stroll through the narrow streets and along the coast lets you immerse yourself in the history of this place that enchanted Claude Monet and Guy de Maupassant

This work of art entitled "Catène de Containers" simply cannot be overlooked. Both the size of the object with the two interlocking arches and the bright colors make it an involuntary eye-catcher. This installation was created by Vincent Ganivet, and the reason for its construction was a proud event in 2017: the 500th anniversary of the port of Le Havre.
