Le Rozel: Nature, History, and Coastal Charm
Less than 15 minutes by car from La Becterie, Le Rozel is a treasure on the Cotentin coast. It offers a must-hike path with ocean views, wild cliffs, and fresh Atlantic air. The loop hike from Le Rozel is perfect for a quick and splendid adventure. Afterward, explore the village of Le Rozel, small and not yet famous. It famous here in La Becterie, thanks to its delicious multigrain bread — a favorite at La Becterie’s breakfasts and guest dinners
The Cap du Rozel and Its Golden Beach
The Cap du Rozel offers sweeping sea views, with the Stella Maris nearby — one of the best spots in Cotentin for a sunset. At its base lies the Plage du Rozel, a wide stretch of golden sand with the Handiplage label. Visitors with reduced mobility are warmly welcomed here — something La Becterie also takes pride in doing well. Just steps away, the prehistoric site reveals footprints left over 80,000 years ago.
After the Hike: Dining by the Sea
Follow the coast south, and you’ll reach Sciotot Beach, ranked among the most beautiful in Europe. Here, beachside restaurants serve fresh seafood, snacking or fish while the sun sets. It’s the perfect way to end your day after walking the must-hike path of Le Rozel — with great food, salty air, and the Atlantic at your feet
