The Jobourg Nose is a 2 billion year old rocky promontory that is home to a bird sanctuary. This plan is very popular with visitors, more than any other natural site in the region, with the exception of Mont-Saint-Michel.

This is a very beautiful section of the coastal path with a view of the Nez de Jobourg. Note that this rocky promontory is also the oldest geological area in Cotentin. It houses four small caves that can be visited.

August 12, 2021,Nice tour around the Nez of Jobourg
