RHH's photos with the keyword: antifer

Hiking the cliffs from Etretat to the Antifer Lighthouse (just visible at the top left) was one of the high points of our trip to Normandy last summer. This photo was taken from the cliffs above La Manneporte with Pointe de la Courtine and the Sorcerer's Cave ahead.

Our first full day in Normandy we hiked the cliffs from Etretat to the Antifer Lighthouse. This is the lighthouse from across the fields.

The photo was taken from Pointe de la Courtine and looks southwest across the Plage des Tilleuls toward Pointe du Fourquet and Cap d' Antifer. The Phare d'Antifer, the lighthouse on the cape, is visible in the center of the photo. We hiked the cliffs (the trail is visible) from Etretat to the village of La Place, near the lighthouse.

I am back after a long hiatus. My mother died in November of 2022 and my father died this past April. After my mother died we spent our spare time visiting my father and when he died were involved in his affairs as executor of his estate. This past summer I had to speak at a conference in England and another in southern California and am pretty much working again full time. We are only now getting our feet back on the ground and finding time for photos. After the conference in England this past summer (Shropshire), we went on to Normandy with our oldest daughter and spent time first in the area of Etretat and then at the D-Day beaches and in Bayeux. We stayed first in Le Tilleul and then in Le Molay Littry and while staying at Le Tilleul walked the cliffs and watched the sunset one evening at Le Plage des Tilleuls. The photo was taken from Le trou de la Sortiere, a cave at the east end of the beach.
