Étretat and jardin

Here’s your go-to guide for soaking up the best of Etretat, Upper Normandy 🌊🌿 — where dramatic cliffs and serene gardens meet fresh seafood and beach fun! Must-See Places in Etretat: 1. Les Jardins D'Etretat (Av. Damilaville, 76790 Étretat, France) — This surreal cliffside garden is open from mid-February through November (hours and days vary by season, generally closing Mon-Tue). It blends art, nature, and insane coastal views for totally unique photo ops. If you’re visiting in summer, don’t miss the extended evening hours to catch the sunset! Tip: Buy your ticket in advance (admission is about 108.0) to skip the line. 2. Plage d' Étretat (1 Pl. Victor Hugo, 76790 Étretat, France) — Open all day, all year, this pebbly beach is perfect for a refreshing swim in summer. The water’s surprisingly clear, and the view of the famous cliffs is stunning. Bring a towel, swimwear, and water shoes for comfort on the stones. Local Insights: The nature here is absolutely next-level — Étretat’s mix of lush greenery, wild cliffs, and sea breeze is unbeatable. Pack a picnic or grab fresh, local seafood at one of the beachfront bistros (try grilled mussels or oysters for the real Norman flavor). Early mornings and late afternoons are best for fewer crowds and softer light for photos. Useful Stuff: Getting around is super easy — Etretat is walkable, or rent a bike to hop between beach and gardens. Most places take cards, but carry a few Euros for small vendors. Summer is swim season (water temp can be brisk!), so bring SPF and a hat. English is spoken in tourist spots, but a few basic French phrases go a long way. #etretatviews #normandynature #frenchbeachday #traveltips #tripdotcom
