Sainte-Marie-du-Mont · Manche

Utah Beach

The Utah sector stretches over a flat shoreline, between dunes and marshes. The line of bunkers follows the coast and is visited on foot; the cannon path serves the seafront. The coastal blockhouses and the villages of the sector are linked by the coastal cycle route.
