Trouville

Trouville-sur-Mer, a seaside resort in Calvados, Normandy, stretches along the English Channel, facing Deauville across the Touques estuary. The town retains a more authentic character than its glamorous neighbour, with an active fishing harbour and a covered market selling fresh fish and local produce, making it a pleasant stop to experience genuine Norman life. The beach, lined with bathing huts and the famous boardwalk, invites leisurely walks facing the sea. Trouville's casino brings evening entertainment and rounds off the resort's leisure offering. Nearby, Deauville's town centre, reachable on foot via the bridge, is well worth extending your visit for its shops and lively atmosphere. For a bite to eat, Il Parasole is well regarded for serving some of the best pizzas in the area. Trouville charms visitors with its historic resort atmosphere, once favoured by painters and writers in the 19th century, while offering easy access to the beaches and shops of Normandy's Côte Fleurie.
