Deauville beach, Sandy beach in Deauville, France
The two-kilometer beach features 450 wooden cabins along Les Planches boardwalk, where each cabin displays the name of a film celebrity or director.
The beach gained prominence in 1875 when the first colorful parasols appeared, leading to the construction of Les Planches boardwalk in 1923 by architect Charles Adda.
The beach hosts the American Film Festival each September, drawing international actors and directors who gather to present their latest cinematic works.
Visitors can rent umbrellas, lounge chairs, and Art Deco cabins for day use or seasonal periods, with access to sports fields and an Olympic swimming pool.
Early morning horseback rides along the shore offer an experience where riders can navigate between the water and the sand while watching the sunrise.
