The Prix Bayeux programme is now available
Launched in 1994 to mark the 50th anniversary of the D-Day landings, the concept has evolved considerably, from a local event day to a remarkably dense week featuring 350 reporters from around the world. Meetings, debates, screenings, exhibitions... from 9 to 15 October for a week-long tribute to freedom and democracy.
You can find the full programme for this new edition in our welcome offices and in our major events section. -
New bikes roads
The new "Bike roads" practical guide includes new routes and ever-expanding services. From Bayeux, in addition to the two existing loops (Gold and Abbaye), cycle tourists can now plan a day's ride to Omaha Beach with the brand new 39km loop.
Another new feature is the one-way Scenic Route 1944 cycle route. From Arromanches to Grandcamp-Maisy, this 45km cycle route takes in some of the finest views of the D-Day landing beaches, with the Échappées Normandes team providing a zen return in a minibus.
The "Bike roads" guide is available free of charge from the Bayeux Intercom tourist office. -
A yachting reception in Port en Bessin
Boaters arriving at the picturesque fishing village can choose to take advantage of the reception area reserved for them behind the tourist office, quai Baron Gérard. In order to access these services, boaters must first pay the pontoon parking fee (CCI) + the tourist tax. Once this formality is completed, boaters can then choose to access the "Marina sanitaries area" service by paying the sum of €4 per person per day (free for children under 10) to the Port-en-Bessin tourist office, which manages the site.
