Traditions and local products

While staying close to the landing beaches, discover the traditions and local produce of the Bay of Cotentin. The cantons of Sainte-Mère-Eglise and Carentan are farming areas. Take a visit to a goat farm, an orchard or a farm-museum and find out about local techniques and traditions. You will also have an opportunity to taste our wonderful local produce!

Take a trip back in time when you visit a marsh “gabare” (a flat bottomed boat), or during a visit to the farm-museum where you will learn about the daily running of a farm a century ago. Make a detour to see the Carentan aqueduct, a piece of engineering unique in France.

The Bay of Cotentin enjoys a rich traditional heritage; come and uncover its secrets!
