With some great day trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to soak up all that Barneville-Carteret, 17 miles away, has to offer. Barneville Beach should be at the top of your to-do list here. Carteret Beach and Cote des Isles Golf are fantastic attractions too. Locals will also likely point you in the direction of Plage de Biville, 30 miles away. If you can only find time for one thing here, make sure it’s Vauville Botanical Garden. (But we’d also recommend Ludiver Observatory and Planetarium and Plage du Blockhaus.)
