Plage de Varengeville-sur-Mer, Coastal beach in Varengeville-sur-Mer, France.

The beach extends along the Alabaster Coast, featuring white chalk cliffs that rise 80 meters above the sandy shoreline at low tide.

Local fishermen have utilized this beach for generations, establishing it as a central point for maritime activities in the Seine-Maritime department.

The beach area connects to the marine cemetery where French cubist painter Georges Braque, who lived in the village for 35 years, rests.

Access to the beach requires descending through a natural valley called Petit Ailly, with parking facilities available at the cliff top.

The beach transforms completely during tidal changes, revealing different geological formations and creating two distinct landscapes within the same day.
