What to do in La Havre?

[Jabb5076]

Hello

 

My wife and I need ideas of what to do in La Havre. Please give us some suggestions. We wanted to find a wine tour but no luck at this point.

 

Look forward to seeing your thoughts and ideas.

 

Thanks

We rented a car and drove to the Normady beaches...it was impressive. If you don't want to go to Paris, then i'd recommend Normandy.

We arrived in Le Havre on a Sunday and rental cars were not available. We hired a taxi at the dock - they were very plentiful. We went to Honfleur for several hours (the driver met us at an assigned place) and had a wonderful day. Honfleur is a charming old port with lots of sailboats and other small boats pulling in and out of the quai.. It is a small enough town to walk from "stem to stern", with great seafood restaurants lining the quai.

 

As a bonus, the taxi driver took us to a great wine shop (run by Brits) on our way back to the ship, and we got some great bargains on good wine to drink in our cabin.

We also went to Honfleur by cab when we were in Le Havre. We loved

the town and would have liked to have had more time. It's really a

very charming town.

We took a 45 minute train ride to Rouen, famous for Joan of Arc. Cheap and efficient.

We did both Honfleur and Deauville...a charmong beach resort! Taxis were available and it was also a Sunday. There is NOTHING to do in Le Harve...we did walk to the rocky uninteresting beach!
