Seaside resorts:

Let’s not forget that Dieppe has been the first seaside resort in France, from the end of the XVIII
century (and the closest beach from Paris). People came to bathe in the Channel to keep fit.

Nowadays, we can enjoy the invigorating sea, admire the famous Normand cliffs, so often painted by
the impressionists, and why not going fishing little grey shrimps with a shrimping net at low tide.

And some lovely beaches to see in the neighbourhood: Pourville-sur-Mer, Varengeville, Sainte
Margherite-sur-Mer, Veules-les-Roses, le tréport…
