These cliffls and the trails along the coast being the main reason to visit Etretat, do take your time. A lot of people turn around on the hike after they get their first glimpse of the cliffs near t… Full review by martenica

Hi My son and I went in August. We arrived in time for the sunset. To my knowledge, there aren’t any tours. If there are, I wouldn’t waist my money. It is just so beautiful. More of a personal reflection place. We found a municipal lot and parking was I think 3 €. The beach is all stone. So wear sneakers and not sandals or slip ons. Once you get past the rocks, you can walk along the beach. There is a lookout area with stairs and also a “ pillbox” right as you go to the lookout. Places to sit and take it in. If you like, there is also a casino. Have fun!
Q:
Are dogs allowed on this beach?
A:
Beach is made up of small silicon stones, no dogs allowed. Dogs are allowed on the walkways and cliffs.

Q:
We are planning a day trip(Sunday) from Paris to Etretat. We will be taking the flixbus and reach Etretat at 11:20 pm. We have 4 -5 hours before we take the evening bus back to Etretat. Is the cliff/beach walkable where the bus stops or do we need to take a cab to reach these locations? Are there places to eat close by?
A:
Yes. The trail is good and you can walk from the bus stop up the cliff on the west side to see a spectacular view. If there is time, you can also walk the path up the east side - goes up to …

Yes. The trail is good and you can walk from the bus stop up the cliff on the west side to see a spectacular view. If there is time, you can also walk the path up the east side - goes up to the 'Chapelle Notre dame de la Garde'. But the west side is a better walk. My husband and I are in our 70s and we are able to walk both sides. But there is a small bus that will aide. Again I prefer to west side (no church) as the slope is less steep. One side of this slope is a golf course. You will not regret the time you spend. Etretat is and was so beautiful that Monet painted one of his famous works. Also one of the oldest Norman houses is there - the Guy de Maupassant's house. Yes there are places to eat. But try to spend little time eating as the scenery is just elegant. Have fun! Hope this helps.

Hi, Maria. What would you like to know about this attraction? Hello we are stopping at Falise d'Etretat for a few hours. We have a rented car so if we go up by the Church will we have a lot of walking and climbing to do to see the cliffs and Elephant head as my husband cannot do a lot of walking.
A:
I’d park in the center of town right by the beach. That way you’d be close to both cliff sides.

We will be in Etretat in September just for an overnight stay. We will not have a car. How do you get to the cliffs - or basically, how do you get around in Etretat? Thank you. Steelergirl

You can walk everywhere in Etretat. It is very small. We parked our car and never moved it the whole weekend. Enjoy!
