The Calvados, stronghold of the Normandy landings
When staying on camping Port'Land in Port en Bessin tourists can enjoy the ideal location to reach easily the main memorials related to D-Day in Normandy. The Calvados coast and more broadly the coast of Basse Normandie boasts many historical sites, museums and cemeteries associated with this famous day of June 6th, 1944. This day marked the beginning of the Allied reconquest in continental Europe during the Second World War.
The campsite Port'Land is located less than 5 km from the beach of Omaha Beach, one of the five D-Day beaches together with Juno, Gold, Utah and Sword Beach. Nearby we find one of the most important American cemeteries.

The Calvados also features tourist sites that have nothing to do with D-Day. A very good example is the medieval city of Bayeux, located at 9 km from the campsite. It has many timber-framed houses in its centre, a magnificent cathedral and the famous Bayeux Tapestry...!
