Unfortunately, the road is closed from here on. So we had to drive all the way back down, which was a bit frustrating. The campsite has cut off all connecting paths to the bike path there.

Yport is not as crowded as Etretat and has very cute streets.

Yport beach is a real insider tip on the Alabaster Coast. The pebbly beach offers you a fantastic view of the white cliffs that stretch along the coast and, in combination with the sea, create an impressive panorama. Yport itself has retained the charm of a small Norman fishing village, and a stroll along the promenade is the perfect way to absorb the tranquil atmosphere of this place. Along the coast you can enjoy the fresh sea air and stop off at one of the small restaurants to try freshly caught seafood. The beach is particularly interesting at low tide, when small snails and mussels cover the rocks and the tides change the landscape. Yport also offers you much more peace and quiet than busy Étretat and is ideal for a relaxing day by the sea. The view of the cliffs and the sea is truly unique, and if you like it cozy, you can sit down on the promenade with a drink and just enjoy nature

The marina of Fécamp is a quiet place where sailboats and motorboats moor side by side. The atmosphere is relaxed and as you walk along the water you can see the many white masts reflected in the water. The fish market is particularly worth seeing, offering freshly caught fish and a wide range of seafood. Here you can buy oysters, shrimps and even lobsters. A visit is particularly worthwhile for lovers of fresh seafood. The harbor itself is functional, but with a little luck you might see a historic sailing ship anchored, which adds to the maritime atmosphere.
