Plage du Butin, Sandy beach in Honfleur, France

The Plage du Butin sits at the Seine estuary near Honfleur's historic center, featuring natural pools formed between the sand and Ratier bank at low tide.

During the past centuries, local sailors used this beach area to lure merchant ships onto sand banks, leading to numerous shipwrecks along the coast.

The beach holds a Blue Flag certification since 2009, recognizing its water quality standards and commitment to environmental protection through selective waste collection.

The beach provides accessibility equipment for disabled visitors, including specialized chairs, along with showers, changing cabins, a paddling pool, and a snack bar.

Natural tidal pools emerge at low tide between the sand and the Ratier bank, creating protected swimming areas for families with children.
