Plage du Temple, Sandy beach in Houlgate, France

The beach extends for two kilometers alongside the Normandy coast, featuring soft sand and clear water between Dives-sur-Mer and Villers-sur-Mer.

During the 19th century, Plage du Temple emerged as a preferred destination for Parisian high society seeking coastal relaxation in Normandy.

The temple area near the beach displays architectural elements from the Belle Époque period, with grand villas lining the seafront.

Two lifeguard stations monitor the beach during summer months, while free parking spaces are available along the seafront near Port Guillaume.

The beach includes specific zones for different activities, with a designated area for kitesurfing and another section where pets are permitted during low tide.
