Sailing Destination Saint Valery-en-Caux, Normandy, France
SAILING JOURNEY DESTINATIONS
Sail the French Coastline to Saint-Valery-en-Caux
One of the hidden gems along the English Channel is the little town Saint-Valery-en-Caux, embedded between the impressive white cliffs on the channel’s South-Eastern coast.
But before you can enter this beautiful place from the sea, careful navigation is mandatory. The pre-harbor falls dry 3 m and harbor entry is only possible HW +/- 2 hrs.
Passing a draw bridge and a massive sea gate you will find a most charming marina right in the city center.
Situated in Northern France, 32 kms from Dieppe, St. Valery en Caux sure is a highlight on the Normandy Alabaster Coast.
Charming alleys, traditional (seafood) restaurants and historic buildings gives you a great taste of small-town Normandy.
Memorials remember of the time when this part of the world was less peaceful but also of the achievements of the great French pilot pioneer Dieudonné Costes flying non-stop from Paris to New York in 1930.
But how beautiful this destination may be, we already can’t wait to set sail again and continue our journey beyond the horizon.
We are Maik and Michelle, two sailors from different worlds and different cultures with very different perspectives about sailing around the world together on our 43-foot, steel ketch, Seefalke. We also have different levels of sailing experience. Maik (a German) has sailed for more than 20 years, while Michelle (an American) has only been sailing five years. Our crew includes two Beagles, Cap’n Jack and Scout! Come along for the ride to follow our journey! We also love to cover cool travel destinations and the amazing sea creatures we discover along the way!

Saint-Valery-en-Caux, sfeervol vissersplaatsje
Saint-Valery-en-Caux is een leuk plaatsje aan de Franse Noordkust. De vis wordt er nog met kleine bootjes gevangen en direct verhandeld op de kade. Vanaf de krijtrotsen heb je een prachtig zicht op het dorpje en over het Kanaal. Voor de camperaars is er een magnifieke overnachtingsplaats, vlakbij de vuurtoren aan de voet van de rotsen.
BEAUTIFUL HONFLEUR
Honfleur is another beautiful town on the coast of Normandy and it quickly became one of our favourite places. And the ice cream was really good!
A couple of middle-aged Kiwis travelling the world by plane, train and motorhome. The kids left home and so did we! We’re not professionals, we’re not experts, we just like to record what we see and do. Enjoy!
Places to see in ( Honfleur - France ) Saint Catherine's Church
Places to see in ( Honfleur - France ) Saint Catherine's Church
The amazing, double-roofed church of St Catherine's, almost entirely built out of wood, dates back to the 15C after the Hundred Years War. Impatient to thank God for the departure of the English, the inhabitants of Honfleur entrusted the construction of their church to ship-builders. As a result, the interior features twin naves, covered by a timber vault upheld by oak columns, reminiscent of an upside-down ship's hull.
The Église Ste-Catherine, or Church of Saint Catherine, was built following the Hundred Years War to replace a stone church that had been destroyed. It dates from the second half of the 15th century.
The story has it that the citizens of Honfleur wanted to thank God for the fact that the British had left their country after a long war. Stone and masons were in high demand and short supply, but the locals were not to be deterred. Using what they knew—building wooden ships—they quickly built a wooden church.
The bell tower is separate from the church, perhaps as a fire precaution. The bell tower is today part of the Musée Eugène Boudin. In the 19th century the interior underwent extensive renovations. Today there are two naves, slightly different in appearance.
( Honfleur - France ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting Honfleur . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Honfleur - France

Honfleur, France
Honfleur is a city in the department of Calvados, in northern France's Normandy region. It's on the estuary where the Seine river meets the English Channel. The Vieux-Bassin (old harbor), lined with 16th- to 18th-century townhouses, has been a subject for artists including Claude Monet and native son Eugène Boudin. Nearby is 15th-century St. Catherine's Church, a vaulted timber structure erected by shipbuilders.
