3-Day itinerary to visiting the D-Day beaches for the first time:

Day 1:
Arrive in Caen via train from Paris and rent a car.
Visit the Utah Beach Museum, and then the Airbourne Museum in St. Mere Eglise.

St Mere Eglise is the perfect base for visiting the Normandy beaches.
Enjoy the restaurant called, Auberge le John Steele.

Day 2:
Visit Omaha Beach, the American Cemetery and the German Cemetery
Save money by visiting the beaches in the off-season.
We’ve visited in the winter, spring, and fall and enjoyed the sites each time.

Day 3:
Pointe du Hoc + Arromanches on your way back to Caen
These WW2 sites are on your way back when returning your rental car in Caen.

Pointe du Hoc shows the absolute magnitude of war better than any other site.
Arromanches was only meant to be temporary – 76 years later, many pieces of the harbor still remain there today and still do their job of calming the waters.

Now, while we’ve laid out a quick trip for you here, we highly recommend diving into the non-war-related culture of Normandy as well.

Allow yourself at least 3 to 5 days for visiting Normandy. That way you don’t feel rushed and can embrace the relaxed, peace-loving culture.
