Trouville-sur-Mer, France

Travel to Trouville-sur-Mer

Trouville-sur-Mer (French pronunciation: [tʁuvil syʁ mɛʁ] (listen), literally Trouville on Sea), commonly referred to as Trouville, is a city of 4,603 inhabitants in the Calvados department in the Normandy region in northwestern France.

Trouville-sur-Mer borders Deauville across the River Touques. This fishing-village on the English Channel became a popular tourist attraction (beach-resort and holiday-destination) in Normandy from the 19th century. Its long sandy beach earned then the nickname of "queen of the beaches" ("Reine des plages") or "most beautiful beach in the world".
