Plage de Luc sur Mer

Made famous by the ‘Pèlerins de la Délivrande’ in 1820 and renowned for its spa, Luc has established itself as one of the leading seaside resorts on the Côte de Nacre.

Its 1.8 km-long promenade is lined with little white beach huts, the casino, the famous clock and the thalassotherapy centre.
Be sure to try a Gui-Gui at Place du Petit Enfer and take a stroll along the famous fishermen’s jetty, a favourite spot for anglers and photography enthusiasts alike.
Luc-sur-Mer beach is also one of Calvados’ top spots for shore fishing. At low tide, amongst the rocks, you’ll find green crabs, bouquet crabs, velvet crabs, mussels, periwinkles and more…

The lively, family-friendly beach at Luc-sur-Mer offers a wealth of activities! Try one of the water sports on offer at the sailing school for children aged 4 and over: junior sailing courses, schooner trips, catamaran sailing, windsurfing…
