Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer

Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer is best known in Normandy for its place on Juno Beach, where Canadian forces came ashore during the Allied landings of 6 June 1944. The resort faces the English Channel on the Côte de Nacre, a stretch of Calvados coastline between Courseulles-sur-Mer and Ouistreham. Its long seafront retains the character of a French resort town, with a promenade, beach activities and early-20th-century villas behind the shore. D-Day interpretation panels and memorials connect everyday coastal life to the history of the Battle of Normandy, while the broad sand and tidal shoreline set its maritime rhythm.
