Plage de Collignon, Sandy beach in Tourlaville, France
The beach extends along Boulevard de Collignon with fine sand and clear waters suitable for swimming and water activities throughout the summer season.
The beach has been a central part of Tourlaville's coastal development since its incorporation into the larger municipality of Cherbourg-en-Cotentin in 2016.
Local families gather at Collignon Beach during summer evenings for community events, outdoor concerts, and traditional Normandy celebrations.
The beach provides monitored swimming areas from July through August, with lifeguards on duty between 11 AM and 7 PM daily.
A natural rocky pool forms at low tide, creating a protected swimming area for children while offering views of Cherbourg's harbor fortifications.
