Starting from Barfleur, a picturesque fishing and yachting port, with its granite houses, you will follow the coastline to reach Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue. Take the time to take a break in this pretty town with its fishing and yachting port, its Tatihou Island and Vauban Towers classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The stage ends in Montebourg which will be, in June 1944, the place of hard fighting from the first days of the battle of Normandy. To see, its church and the Abbey Notre-Dame-de-l'étoile.
