A small commune along the English Channel. From the beach, you can see the islands of Jersey and Chausey. At low tide, shore fishing is possible. To the west, behind a strip of coastal dunes, a sandy harbor has been partially converted for agricultural, oyster farming, and tourism activities. In 1964, 120 hectares were transformed into a polder. In 1981, 11 hectares were developed into a shellfish farming zone. The commune's main source of wealth comes from oyster farming, whose flavor is appreciated throughout the country. Beyond the harbor, the wooded landscape offers superb views of the sea and the islands.

The church of Notre-Dame de Gratot is a Catholic building located in the French commune of Gratot in the department of the English Channel in Normandy.

The commune of Pont de la Roque was the subject of a first Allied bombing on April 23, 1944. The bombers targeted the stone bridge built over the coastal river of Siena. Nearly 20 air raids were launched to destroy this bridge and it was not until mid-June that three of the eleven arches were destroyed by bombs.

Remains of a stone bridge crossing La Roque.

Very quiet and very pleasant road for a bike ride.

The parish of Linverville was founded in the 7th century by Saint Ouen. The lords of Linverville had been the Louvels before being the de Vers. Then the fief returned again to the Louvels, lords of Montmartin, who kept it until under Louis XIV when they sold their manor of Linverville and the estate to the Bordes de Folligny family who kept them until the eve of the Revolution.

Saint-Ouen church modified in the 18th and 19th centuries, with a sundial. It houses a stained glass window of the “Miraculous Fishing” as well as three ex-voto boats. The pillars and arcades which support the tower, placed between choir and nave, belong to the Romanesque style. The arches of the vault fall on consoles or modillions, representing human heads. It is the only part of the church which offers any interest.
