The small seaside resort of Blonville-sur-Mer is located in the Calvados department in Lower Normandy, less than 5 km from  Deauville. Very popular since the beginning of the 20th century, it has even been nicknamed « the children’s paradise » because of its friendly nature and the many activities it offers. The beach of Blonville sur Mer (divided into 4 sectors) is known to be family and quiet attracting many celebrities who stay there incognito. In summer, two help stations are available.

It is at the foot of Mount Canisy, a site dating from 1943, at the time of the Atlantic Wall. We discover among others a command bunker, thirty small posts, a long trench that can still be explored…

In the Belle Epoque, several sumptuous villas were built at the seaside but it is also possible to admire the 17th century mansions, especially that of Anquetôt, and some traditional farmhouse in the surrounding countryside. The marsh of Blonville is a well-known place for walkers. Many trails leave the town and can discover this part of the coastline which is a refuge for many species of birds. Blonville is also famous for its garage sales.
