A Belle Époque escape
Cabourg is what Deauville pretends to be. A long sandy beach, a 19th-century Grand Hotel where Marcel Proust wrote, oysters at low tide, and the kind of boardwalk where time slows down. For Thai travelers tired of Paris, Cabourg is a revelation.
The Grand Hotel
The Grand Hotel anchors the town. Proust came here every summer for over a decade and wrote much of "À la recherche du temps perdu" in his suite. Today the rooms are still classic, the dining room still serves a proper dinner, and the boardwalk in front bears his name.
Around Normandy
From Cabourg you can reach Mont-Saint-Michel in 90 minutes, Honfleur in 40, Étretat in two hours, the D-Day beaches in less than an hour. We design four-day Cabourg programs that include all of these as half-day excursions, returning each evening to your Belle Époque base.
Pre-wedding paradise
Cabourg is one of our favourite pre-wedding photo locations. The boardwalk, the beach huts, the Grand Hotel terrace, the casino — every angle photographs beautifully. Combined with Mont-Saint-Michel at sunrise, it produces the most stunning Thai pre-wedding albums we have ever delivered.
