Magnificent little church erected in the 12th century, with later additions up to the 17th century. And the cemetery has a water point just to the left of the entrance.

Asnelles

Highlight • Settlement

This coastal town with its sandy beach is located at the eastern end of the artificial harbor of Arromanches. The seafront promenade offers a good view of the cliffs and the roadstead of Aromanches. On the beach is a monument in honor of the British 231st Infantry Brigade.

Asnelles beach trailhead

Highlight • Trail

From the end of the seawall to the east the beach is natural and undeveloped. The trail behind the dunes is sandy and some sections are not really suitable for regular bike tires. Another access to the Marais beach is a mile further east.
