Saint-Jouin-Bruneval

Tucked along Normandy’s Côte d’Albâtre on the English Channel, Saint-Jouin-Bruneval is a place whose character is shaped by the chalk cliffs and open sea of the Pays de Caux. Its beach lies below the high coastal escarpment, while farmland spreads across the plateau behind the shore. The commune is closely associated with the Bruneval Raid of February 1942, when British paratroopers targeted a German radar installation; the Bruneval Memorial recalls the operation. This stretch of coast also places the village within easy reach of Étretat’s celebrated cliff formations. Move on to other webcams in the region to compare coastal settings around Normandy.
