Tuesday 23rd September 2025 – from Siouville-Hague to St Germain-sur-Ay…

Today was a much sunnier and less windy day and a great day for beach walking – starting first thing with a walk to look at the tide covered glorious sandy beaches we walked along yesterday afternoon on our way along to find Plage du Plate still in the shade from the morning sun…

After packing up and heading on our way south our first stop was the glorious Plage de Sciotot where we enjoyed a lovely walk along the deserted golden sands…

Next up the equally delightful Plage de Surtainville…

Followed by two more beauties – Plage de Carteret and Plage de Potiere…

We only managed a distant glimpse of Plage de Barneville-Carteret as I missed the turning and ended up at Plage de Port Bail instead…

Enough for one day but after parking up for the night at a Camping Car Park Aire we had enough energy to wander down through the village to take a quick run (Tilly not me!) on Plage de St Germain-sur-Ay before calling it a night – what an amazing day…

Thoughts of the day:

  • Not much I’m too exhausted but
  • There seems to be a coastal route a bit like the NC500 – the first section was Tour de les Caps and this current bit seems to be Tour de les Havres – I need to do some searching to see if this is a reliable route to follow.
  • Even though some of the roads through the villages are a bit tricky (narrow with sharp turns) – non of them have landed me in any difficulty….so far

Today’s stats:

  • Miles driven – 37
  • Miles walked – 10
  • Beaches – 9
  • Food – £27.42
  • Aire – £12.53

  1. I think your vehicle is eminently more suited to French villages than ours. We’ve had a few hairy moments on our latest trip, and I think we terrified a hitch hiker we picked up. It was on one of the mountain sections along balcony roads. Unfortunately, with the cab a metre and a half up, you get a bit too much of a view when you’re passing sheer drops!
