Description

Park your motorhome in the peaceful aire nature of Saint-Jouin-Bruneval, open year-round and offering a panoramic sea view, direct access to the coast and practical services for parking, waste emptying and water refill (10 minutes of water per 24 h period). The site is accessible 24h/24 via a rising barrier and an information panel guides you on site. A short walk away, the village center offers a bakery, butcher, grocery shop, restaurants and laundromat, as well as the Saturday morning “p’tit marché” focused on short supply chains (fish and seafood, farmhouse ciders, churned butter, seasonal vegetables, raw-milk ice cream) and Norman specialties. Enjoy the pebble beach that uncovers sand at low tide for shore fishing and walks, respecting the Preservation Charter (leave the pebbles, stay on marked paths, avoid the edge and foot of cliffs, respect private property). The aire encourages soft mobility — easy access by public transport and by bike — to preserve this landscape listed as Grand Site Falaises d’Étretat–Côte d’Albâtre.

Tourisme

Saint-Jouin-Bruneval (Seine-Maritime, France)

Saint-Jouin-Bruneval is a small coastal village perched on the cliffs of the English Channel, west of Le Havre. The site is best known for its limestone cliffs that continue the Cliffs of Albâtre and for the wide pebble beach below. The place's history was marked by an episode of World War II that still draws military history enthusiasts. The terrain offers bright maritime panoramas, suitable for walks and photography.

Heritage and history

The name Bruneval remains associated with the Bruneval raid (27 February 1942), a British airborne operation aiming to retrieve a German radar. Traces of the conflict are visible in the landscape and local memory, although the village is not a major historical tourist hub. The built heritage remains modest: Normandy houses, farms and a few coastal buildings integrated into the rural landscape.

Nature and landscapes

The cliffs offer unobstructed views of the English Channel and the Côte d'Albâtre. The pebble beach, the horizon line and the tides create very changeable atmospheres. The flora of the embankments and seabirds attract observers; the light is often renowned for photography.

Outdoor activities

Hikes along coastal paths, bike rides in the Norman countryside and shore fishing at low tide are the favored activities. The proximity of Le Havre also allows for broader cultural and nautical outings from a quiet base.

Gastronomy and local life

The cuisine relies on Norman products: fish and seafood according to local catch, butter, apples and cheeses. Local restaurants and inns showcase these products in a simple, warm style.

  • Bruneval Beach: large stretch of pebbles at the foot of the cliffs, ideal for walking.

  • Site of the Bruneval raid (27 February 1942): a historical spot for World War II enthusiasts.
