Directly below the military cemetery is this dream beach - it is very difficult to imagine what bloody events took place here in 1944!

A short loop that starts and ends at the Omaha Beach parking lot. Afterwards you can take a nice walk on the beach.

When the Allied forces from the USA, Great Britain, Canada, and France landed on the Normandy beaches on June 6, 1944, the decisive turning point of World War II began.

Calvados still bears many traces of the historic D-Day: ruined bunkers and remnants of artificial harbors recall the events of the war, while numerous museums, memorials, and military cemeteries keep …

Unfortunately, the cemetery itself was already closed. You are very consistent.

A very nice hike along Omaha Beach. 🌊 The American Cemetery and other historical sites were very interesting to see. Afterwards, we visited the Overlord Museum. It was very moving, but beautiful. 🌞🇨🇵

Omaha Beach. The wind blew sharply off the sea, driving moist air across the sand. The hour's drive still hung between us, yesterday Mont Saint Michel – so today it was back in the car, again looking around, no swimming. The weather left no other choice. We found a parking space immediately, took a ticket, and went for three hours. …

September 7, 2023,Omaha Beach - Normandie
A place steeped in history, some memorials remind us of the time of the Second World War.

If you first visit the "Cemetiere Americain de Normandie" you will see the beach with different eyes...

Nowadays a very nice, wide bathing beach.

At Les Moulins, somewhat hidden, a steep staircase leads up to the dunes.
