Travelling to Port-en-Bessin-Huppain
The village is home to an active fishing fleet, and it's not uncommon to see colorful fishing boats gently rocking in the harbor as fishermen prepare the day's catch. Fresh seafood is a local delicacy, with restaurants serving delicious dishes ranging from moules marinières (mussels in white wine sauce) to perfectly cooked cod.
Port-en-Bessin-Huppain also holds strategic historical significance. During World War II, the village played a key role as one of the Allies' important ports on D-Day. The small town, which survived the war almost unscathed, is still filled with traces of its military history, and visitors can explore bunkers and memorials that testify to the past.
One of the most striking features of Port-en-Bessin-Huppain is its picturesque harbor promenade. Here, you can stroll along the quay, admire the colorful boats, and enjoy the fresh sea air. The old town, with its cobbled streets and charming shops, adds an extra dimension of authenticity to the experience.
