The best beach bars Normandy

If you're a fan of paillotes, you'll love this one in Carolles! With a breathtaking view of the sea and the Chausey Islands in the distance, you can sit on the sheltered terrace or with your feet in the sand, before, after, or during your beach visit. Here, you'll also find a number of good, simple restaurants to satisfy your hunger. In the evenings, you'll also find a range of attractive platters. The welcome is great and, to top it all off, DJs sometimes drop in to set the mood!

It's easy to spot the Baligan, with its distinctive wooden storefront! Just a stone's throw from the beach, the place (named after the famous "trou", a natural cavity in the nearby Flamanville cliffs) has it all! It's a lively place where you can have a drink, eat (with a special mention for the burgers, which are tasty and particularly hearty) and have fun, with plenty of concerts in fine weather, making it one of the little town's must-sees. We'll be back in no time!

At the edge of the beach, it is a straw hut, with a little something more. La Pause Carollaise is indeed a vast and beautiful place, open on sunny days and with its feet in the water. After having made some changes (a new logo, a renewed terrace), the place is ready to operate with brio a new season. Here, one comes to take a glass, to eat a piece, with a splendid framework formed of the sea, of its spectacle, and of the surrounding animation. Easy to find, the place is very busy in summer: logical!

Here's a rather chic beach bar that stands out in the local scene. Here, you can sit back on comfortable cushions, stretch out and enjoy a drink with your feet in the sand and a lively musical atmosphere: quite simply, you're in for a chill. Planks, cocktails and good Thai food: nothing is missing here, and the welcome is pretty good. The place is lively when the weather's fine, which is quite normal after all. We fully endorse this not-to-be-missed spot, which is very much the talk of Gouville.
