Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer

Tourism, holidays & weekends guide in the Seine-Maritime

Charming little seaside resort of Seine-Maritime, on the Alabaster coast, Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer takes place between Dieppe and Saint-Valery-en-Caux, about seventy-five kilometers from Rouen and its famous cathedral. Located near Sotteville-sur-Mer, Quiberville and La Chapelle-sur-Dun, it reveals the largest sandy beach in this part of Haute-Normandie.

Property of the abbey of Saint-Wandrille in the 13th century, then property of the barony of Ferrières, the town of Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer becomes independent stronghold in the second half of the 17th. The city as we know it today is born in 1822 from the merger of the ancient cities of Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer and Epineville. Its castle was illustrated in history by becoming the property of the Marquis de Pamponne, minister of Louis XIV, in the seventeenth century.

Today, the seaside resort of Normandy attracts visitors with the charm of its architectural heritage as well as its exceptional natural landscapes that allow the practice of many leisure activities or sports.

Things to see and do

Listed as a Historical Monument, the castle of Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer was the property of the Marquis de Pamponne then that of the Choiseul-Gouffier family in the 18th century. Its park is also part of a classified site.

Listed in the supplementary inventory of Historical Monuments, the church Saint-Aubin also deserves a small detour. It reveals in particular a nave and a tower tower of origin dating from XIIe century. Not far away, you will be seduced by the exteriors of Villa Jentel.

But it is mainly for its very pleasant sandy beach that Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer is appreciated by passing visitors. In addition to swimming and idleness, the site allows the practice of windsurfing, kitesurfing, fishing on foot or fishing by boat.

Lovers of fresh and healthy products will be tempted by the sale of fresh fish directly by the fishermen.
