Plage de la Vieille-Église
The Old Church Beach, long also called Hatainville Beach, is a fine sand and rocky beach on the Coast of the Isles, in the Manche department. It is located straddling Barneville-Carteret and Les Moitiers-d'Allonne, which is the main landmark for organizing access. For an outing today, it stands out for this sand-rock mix and its insertion into a coastal sector where beaches are spaced: La Potinière beach, the Grande Plage de Barneville at Portbail, and another entrance named Old Church Beach are about 4.3 km away. Check facilities, surveillance, tides, access, and weather conditions before leaving.
About this spot
The Old Church Beach is located between Barneville-Carteret and Les Moitiers-d'Allonne. Its interest lies in the setting of the Coast of the Isles, with fine sand and rocks, but the practical details of the day remain to be checked before the visit.
