Etretat & Honfleur - Normandie - France - April 2009










After we had visited Villers-Bretonneaux for Anzac Day, we drove down to the Normandie coast and stayed at a small town called Etretat.






Etretat is a nice town, most notable for cider (Normandie is famous for cider - loads of apples) and also an unusual rock formation on the coastline, resembling an elephant's trunk, dipping into the water.










We really enjoyed our short time in Etretat and just a short distance down the coast is a larger town called Honfleur.

Loads of tourists as it was a superb day, but not overly touristy and a really cool place to visit.

The harbour in Honfleur is very impressive, especially with the tall building overlooking the old harbour.
