Eat cheese
The local cheese from Normandy is called "Neufchâtel"
I'm not that great cheese freak, but I must tell I liked this one. It has a very sharp noise and taste. As strong it is in the mouth as smooth the aftertaste asks for more :-)

Next to the walking route you'll find the golf course stretched over the entire coastline of Etretat.
The lovely lil' town of Etretat and the view on the beach and cliffs might distract you.
Just focus on the white ball !
Once you passed the Chapel at the East of Etretat, you will find a sign telling you to watch out for falling rocks! There is a stairway that takes you all the way down to the sea ... and gives you the opportunity to carve the name of your loved one in the rocks...
This rock formation is situated at the northeastern end of the beach. It can be reached by car, but there are also stairs leading from the town to the top of the rocks. You will find also a small nice chapel up there.
The chapel of Notre Dame de la Garde is on top of the cliffs, looking out over Etretat, the sea and the white cliffs Southwards. It was built in 1854 by a Jesuit priest from Rouen and is dedicated to the sailors as well. In the Great War (WW1) is was destroyed, but immediately rebuilt in 1950. Near the church is a monument in the shape of an airplane image in stone for the pioneers of flying Nungesser and Coli. They tried to cross the Atlantic in their aircraft "The White Bird", but were last seen here over Etretat. Their attempt failed and the two pioneers were never found again.
