Normandy’s flora and fauna has a lot to offer. Roadside verges and paths are full of wild flowers and with so many varied habitats there are abundant birds and animals to see. Hares, red squirrels, buzzards, bats, butterflies are all common occurrences and if you are lucky you may spot a wild boar, black woodpecker or other rarity. The north Normandy coast has wide sandy beaches and calm seas and life guards patrol the most popular beaches in high season. Dogs are allowed on a few beaches all year round and on all beaches in low season, although you will need to check specific dates for any given beach.

Normandy caters brilliantly for its younger (and not so young!) visitors, There are zoos, open farms, soft play areas, tree top walks, theme parks and a miniature railway. Castles are always popular to visit. An example of this is Falaise Castle in the birthplace of William the Conquerer. For something a bit different have a go at the local Vélorails where you cycle on specially adapted cycle carts along old railway lines.
