The Barquette Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

This lock bridge in Carentan offers a beautiful view of the marsh landscapes. Its five flood gates close when the tide rises and open when it falls.

Canal de Carentan

Highlight • River

The port in the northeast of the city is located at the end of a channel connecting the bay of Les veys and was inaugurated in 1982. When the tide rises, the so-called muscaret can be seen from the lock that closes the entrance to the harbour: a phenomenon in which a wave that flows into the canal from the sea is broken by the resistance of the river water that flows into the sea in the opposite direction.

Portion in the marshes

Highlight • Other

Very nice portion in the heart of the marsh. A few steps from the Channel Sea, this natural space is home to a great diversity of species. Take the time to observe them as you progress.
