On a hill in the historic fishing district of le Courtgain is a small chapel Chapelle des Marins. The small houses of the fishing families are behind the large buildings on the quay. You will find these in Rue des Moulins and Rue des Pilotes, colorful streets at the bottom of the hill. The hill was the vantage point for the women to see if their men were returning home. In the chapel prayers were said for a safe voyage, a good return home and for good luck on the next voyage. The chapel dates from the nineteenth century, but was completely renovated in 1995.

From the chapel on the hill, there is a beautiful view of the bay and Le Grotoy.
