Honfleur - Calvados

home > regions > Calvados > places of interest > Honfleur

Orchards stretch for miles, but then, as it takes 10 litres of cider to produce one litre of distilled calvados (apple brandy), it’s hardly surprising. Honfleur is one of the most picturesque ports in France and as such is a big draw for tourists from across Europe. The Vieux Bassin where yachts now replace the smugglers’ boats is probably the most painted harbour in the world and the whole town is awash with galleries. Out of season it is sleepy and almost unspoilt.
