RHH's photos with the keyword: porte d'aval

This photo was taken from west of Etretat and looks east to the cliffs beyond Etretat, this promontory and arch known as Porte d'Amont. We were hiking the cliffs west of Etretat from the town to the Antifer Lighthouse. This is almost the last of my photos from France and before the week ends I'll be going on to other things.

The day after arriving in France (via the Dover to Calais ferry) and checking into our guest house in Le Tilleul, we walked the cliffs from Etretat to the Antifer Lighthouse. The arch is the Porte d'Aval and the sea-stack is l'Aiguille. The town of Etretat is visible on the far right with the Chapelle Notre-Dame de la Garde and the Monument Nungesser et Coli on hillside above the town.

The day after arriving in France and checking into our guest house in Le Tilleul we visited Etretat and walked the cliffs to the Antifer Lighthouse. This was where we started, the beach at Etretat looking toward the Porte d'Aval with an old German Bunker from World War 2 in the foreground.
