Yport

Yport is a small fishing village in Normandy, on the Alabaster Coast, just a few kilometres from Étretat and Fécamp. The village sits within a valleuse, framed by the tall chalk cliffs typical of this coastline. Its shingle beach offers a quieter, less crowded setting than that of the more touristy neighbouring resorts. The traditional fishing harbour and fishermen's cottages reflect the village's maritime heritage. A Belle Époque-style casino overlooks the seafront, a reminder of the area's 19th-century seaside development. The surrounding cliffs are crossed by walking trails, including part of the GR21 coastal path, offering scenic views and routes on foot to Étretat or Fécamp. The Saint-Martin church, at the heart of the village, adds to this modest but genuine local heritage. With Normandy's mild oceanic climate, featuring gentle summers and temperate winters, Yport suits stays focused on nature, walking and exploring the Normandy coast away from the busier, better-known resorts.
