What to do in Normandy for a first trip?
Many of you ask me the question on social networks and on the blog: what to do in Normandy for a first trip? Honestly, sightseeing in the region can take a lifetime! You will realize it by preparing your trip and by strolling on my blog. This part of France has varied landscapes, a strong culture and history: Normandy beaches are really popular, William the Conqueror and the WW2 have left a strong heritage in our five counties: Calvados, Eure, Manche, Orne and Seine Maritime.
For those who visit the region for the first time, start by consulting the ‘Must See’ section. Don’t hesitate to visit the category ‘Quirky’ category. This way you’ll find some unique ideas to discover Normandy from another angle.
I would recommend you to have a look at the Normandy map and organize your visits by grouping them together. The area is big enough, so let’s save time and energy!
