The landscape around Langrune-sur-Mer is a low, open English Channel coast, which has shaped both the town’s linear seafront development and local resort economy. Set on Normandy’s Côte de Nacre, the commune faces a wide tidal shore where the beach changes markedly between high and low water. Its promenade, seafront villas and older streets reflect the growth of Normandy’s coastal holiday resorts from the 19th century onward. Langrune-sur-Mer also lies near the D-Day landing beaches, which give this section of coast an important place in the memory of the Second World War.
