Area for camping-car of Saint-Germain-sur-Ay

Enjoy a getaway in the Manche department by staying in Saint-Germain-sur-Ay, along the famous ‘Côte des Havres’. The ‘Côte des Havres’ runs from Barneville-Carteret to Granville and has 8 harbours, including Saint-Germain-sur-Ay, one of the largest and wildest of the coast. At the confluence of the rivers and the salt waters of the sea, discover these large stretches of fine sand, typical of Normandy. Follow the famous ‘Sentier des Douaniers’ (GR 34) and stop at the guardhouse to admire the view. Watch the sheep grazing in the coastal salt marshes, a sign of the authenticity and protection accorded to this area. Reach the supervised beach of Saint-Germain-sur-Ay directly from the campsite for a relaxing and refreshing moment. If you love going to the beach, head to Gouville-sur-Mer for a fishing session and admire the colourful beach huts. About 10 km from Saint-Germain-sur-Ay, go for a walk or a bike ride near the Lessay moors. There are many paths for the whole family, such as the one around Lake Bruyères. Interpretive panels give you plenty of information about the surrounding flora and fauna. Finally, don’t miss the exceptional views from the Cotentin mountains. The mount of Doville offers a superb panorama of Jersey. To get there, follow the discovery trail and pass the old church, the guardhouse and the old mill. The hiking possibilities in this region are endless and very diverse in terms of landscape.
