A visit to the famous beaches that literally changed the course of the world and where the sense of history is inescapable. The beaches at Sword, Juno, Gold and Omaha the place where nearly 150,000 men descended to begin the liberation of Europe in June 1944. Gold was the codename for the centre of the five designated beaches and is more than five miles wide, while Omaha, the most famous and bloodiest landing beach, has cliffs still riddled with German bunkers. A museum behind the beach has exhibitions of weapons, uniforms, vehicles and tanks.
Half Day Arromanches
A morning visit to the small village of Arromanches near Bayeaux, where the remains of the famous 7-mile Mulberry Harbour that was used to land vast amounts of men, tanks and other heavy equipment are still clearly visible. Like many towns in the area, there is also a D-Day museum, in the village.
