From Honfleur to Merville-Franceville stretches what has come to be known
known as the ‘flowery coast’.
The lush countryside and the many gardens of the belle époque villas that line the seafront have given this privileged piece of Normandy coastline its name.
Discover this land of flowers, close to Le Clos de Balleroy campsite, around 1 hour's drive away.
The Côte Fleurie, the western part of the Pays d'Auge, is dotted with towns with famous names.
Among them, Deauville is certainly the most prestigious beach in Calvados and the Normandy region.
A lively fishing port and luxurious seaside resort, Trouville-sur-Mer is also a pleasant place to stop off for a stroll with family or friends, by the sea or in the countryside. For the perfect Côte Fleurie tour, don't forget to stop off in Honfleur, the town of the composer Eric Satie.
Cabourg, also on the Côte Fleurie, is an essential stop-off on your trip.
Marked by the passage of many Impressionist painters, this charming and authentic little port gracefully unfurls its many timber-framed houses along the shore. You'll love strolling through the romantic narrow streets, visiting the Eugène Boudin Museum, savouring a gourmet dinner in a top restaurant and enjoying the pastel hues of the sunsets over the estuary.
