Plage de Querqueville, Sandy beach in Cherbourg-en-Cotentin, France.
The Plage de Querqueville extends for 750 meters along the Normandy coast, featuring a mix of brown sand and rocks with a 40-meter width.
The beach has been a central part of Cherbourg-en-Cotentin's coastal landscape, serving as a natural barrier between the English Channel and the mainland.
Local families gather at this beach throughout summer months for traditional activities, including pétanque games and community events near the shoreline.
Visitors can access free parking with over 100 spots located 100 meters from the beach, which offers showers, toilets, and lifeguard services.
A small tidal pool emerges during low tide, while the main swimming area maintains water depth due to minimal tidal recession.
