About Saint-Valery-en-Caux Beach
Saint-Valery-en-Caux Beach is a picturesque pebble beach on Normandy's famous Alabaster Coast (Côte d'Albâtre), dramatically framed by towering white chalk cliffs. The beach is composed of distinctive 'galets cauchois' - smooth silica pebbles unique to this coastline - with sandy areas exposed at low tide. Visitors can enjoy two separate beach areas on either side of the charming working fishing port and marina.

Until 1974, Saint-Valery-en-Caux had a thriving industry harvesting the famous 'galets cauchois' pebbles, prized for their exceptional silica purity. Workers collected, sorted, and exported these smooth stones by boat for use in ceramics and industrial applications. Today, pebble collection is strictly prohibited as they form a crucial natural barrier protecting the coastline from erosion.
