With some great day trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to experience all that Barneville-Carteret, 55 miles away, has to offer. Barneville Beach, Carteret Beach and Cote des Isles Golf alone justify the drive out here. The locals will also probably point you toward Plage de la pointe du Banc, 40 miles away. If you can only find time for one attraction here, make sure it’s Lessay Raceway and Aerodrome. (But we’re also huge fans of Corps de Garde of Saint-Germain-sur-Ay and Chateau Fort de Pirou.)
