Villers-sur-Mer, Coastal commune in Calvados, Normandy, France
Villers-sur-Mer is a coastal town in Normandy situated along the Côte Fleurie between Deauville and Houlgate. The beach stretches for two kilometers with shallow water that suits a range of visitors.
The town grew from scattered hamlets with a church and two farms in the early 1800s. By the second half of the 1800s, it had transformed into a seaside resort destination.
The cast iron market hall serves as a meeting point for local vendors and visitors gathering twice weekly. The adjacent Saint Martin Church displays Gothic features and detailed stained glass windows that fill its interior with colored light.
The town has a railway station with regular connections to nearby places like Deauville and Dives-sur-Mer, with increased service during summer months. The seafront promenade and market hall are easy to reach on foot and provide good landmarks when exploring.
The Prime meridian runs through this place and is marked by a blue line on the seafront promenade. This makes it the northernmost French commune crossed by this reference line.
