Port of Barneville-Carteret

Highlight • Beach

The tide index is strong in this little haven. Low or high water, the port of Barneville-Carteret is very pleasant to frequent.

At the top of the coast of the cornice, is located Cape Carteret, its lighthouse and its panorama on the beautiful blue. A local regular tells me that sometimes he sees dolphins a few hundred meters away. No luck today, they are not out.

Carteret Lighthouse

Highlight • Other

This lighthouse can be visited during school vacation periods, weekends and holidays. The lighthouse was built in 1837 on the cliff of Cap de Carteret, by a square tower on a rectangular building in exposed stone masonry. In 1870, two houses for the guards were added. The lighthouse was electrified in 1937 then fully automated in 1976 although it is still guarded today. Partly destroyed by the Germans in 1944, it was restored to the same plan after the war.
