Plage de Villers-sur-Mer

This expansive sandy beach stretches over 2 kilometers along the Norman coastline, featuring characteristic white beach huts and offering panoramic views of the English Channel with the dramatic Black Cow Cliffs as a backdrop.

The Black Cow Cliffs adjacent to the beach contain significant Jurassic-era fossils that have been studied by paleontologists for over a century, making this location an important site for understanding prehistoric marine life.

The town regularly hosts summer festivals and cultural events that celebrate Norman maritime traditions, bringing together locals and visitors for celebrations centered around the sea and regional heritage.

The beach is supervised daily from July 1 to September 1 between 11:30 AM and 6:30 PM, provides showers, restrooms, and parking facilities, and holds the handiplage certification ensuring accessibility for people with reduced mobility.

The Greenwich Meridian line passes through Villers-sur-Mer and is marked by a dedicated viewpoint near the casino, allowing visitors to stand at exactly zero degrees longitude.
