Winter, all sweetness and surprises

Winter in Seine-Maritime is the art of cocooning without ever getting bored. Cosy up in a museum or snuggle up in front of the fireplace, savoring local stories and flavors. The harbors, with their dancing lights and typical melodies, invite you to stroll around wrapped up in a blanket. Deserted beaches take on a mystical air, perfect for invigorating strolls.
