1. Le Crotoy, back to the roots
Here, no more subway or tram, we opt for the steam train. As soon as you arrive at Noyelles-sur-mer station, hop on the Baie de Somme railway for a true journey back in time. You won't miss the automatic doors of the Parisian metro! Once you're there, we recommend renting a bike, because there's so much to see. It's not just 1 but 4 beaches that you have to discover in Le Crotoy. On the agenda: outdoor walks, catamaran or pirogue rides, street theater, and seafood at the "Les Tourelles" restaurant with a panoramic view worthy of its name!

2. Deauville, the most stylish
"Chabadabada" it's with the tune of the famous film "A Man and a Woman" by Claude Lelouch that you will leave your weekend. Often considered as the 21st arrondissement of Paris, Deauville is made for you. Whether as a couple or with family, enjoy the 643 meters long beach! You can walk, run, stroll on the boardwalk, rent one of the famous umbrellas or discover the names of celebrities that line the cabins, it's up to you to choose. For those who prefer sports: the racecourse is also very pleasant. To end the day beautifully, head to the casino. If you're lucky and win, you can go straight to the mythical Normandy for a delicious dinner."

3. Dieppe, for sports enthusiasts (and the lazy ones)
For avid cycling enthusiasts (and the most courageous ones), you can attempt to reach the beaches of Dieppe by bike... from Paris! Yes, it's possible! You will pass through the "Avenue Verte", a very pleasant promenade that crosses beautiful landscapes one after another. Upon arrival, a well-deserved splash awaits you, as well as the delicious scallops and herring that contribute to Dieppe's culinary reputation. And of course, for those who are not fans of cycling, you can patiently wait for your cyclists while admiring paintings by Renoir or Pissaro at the Musée de Dieppe, located in a fortress castle. If you don't like sand, you will appreciate the magnificent pebble beach of Dieppe. So yes, your feet might hurt a little, but at least you won't have sandy feet!; everywhere and drives you crazy!

4. Cabourg, the most relaxing
A kind of little Deauville, with less people and cheaper, it exists, it's Cabourg! We find the same activities: casino, racecourse, beaches, and umbrellas. Above all, we enjoy the superb boardwalk and its romantic atmosphere. For a peaceful and rejuvenating getaway, Cabourg is the place to be.
Marcel Proust to breathe in the sea air, stretch your legs, or for the more motivated, go for a morning jog. We take a moment to discover « the Meridian of Love », an open-air museum. Cabourg is the ideal beach to recharge and escape the stress of Paris. You can also do like Sophie Marceau and go on a whim with your grandmother. Of course, we can't pass by the Grand Hotel of Cabourg without recalling that iconic scene from the movie La Boum.2h15 from Saint-Lazare station
