Overview
With a promenade lined with beach huts as early as April, the long pebble beach reveals a long stretch of sand at low tide to make the most of the beach with your family! An ideal place for a picnic or simply to sit down and take in the landscape...
In summer, a lifeguard patrolled swimming area is marked out by buoys and a floating platform is set up to delight both children and grown-ups!
The watch post, open in July and August, will provide useful information every day: tide times, weather forecast, water quality, etc. The beach guards also provide a Tiralo beach wheelchair to allow people with reduced mobility to enjoy sea bathing.
At low tide, you can go shellfish picking in the rocks with your family or friends before the sea covers them again! From shrimps to periwinkles, from green shore crabs to mussels, there are many species to find!
Don't forget to look up and take in the breathtaking cliff scenery! On one side, the white cliffs that gave its name to this coastline and on the other side the brown clay of Cap D'ailly. Beneath the cliffs, the famous pebbles shaped by the rolling of the waves, coming from layers of flint that separated from the chalk after collapses a long time ago.
For safety reasons, it is forbidden to walk under the cliffs, as landslides are frequent and unpredictable. It is often said that the height of the cliff is the distance you should stay away from it to remain safe!
For further information about the activities, equipment, and tide times, please contact the Tourist Information Centre in Quiberville.
