Photographer in Étretat

Two arches, a needle of chalk and a pebble beach between them. The light arrives along the cliffs at the end of the day and turns the chalk from grey to gold in about twenty minutes. The climbs on either side are steep and, in wet weather, genuinely slippery — worth knowing before choosing footwear.

Sessions

  • Monochromatic cliffs and natural arch over the ocean
  • White cliffs, a natural arch, and sea stack at sunset
  • Coastal cliffs and beach viewed through a natural cave opening

Locations

Best photo locations in Étretat

Where to shoot in Étretat, when the light is best, and what each place needs.

  • Falaise d’Aval et l’Aiguille

    Best time
    The last hour before sunset
    Permits
    Free — public cliff path

    The arch and the needle together, from the golf-course side. A twenty-minute climb, unfenced in places, and not somewhere to take small children near the edge.

  • Plage de galets

    Best time
    Low tide, late afternoon
    Permits
    Free — public beach

    Looking up at the Porte d’Aval from below. Accessible to everyone, no climb, and at low tide there is enough beach to get real distance from the arch.

When to visit Étretat for photos

May to September for reliable evenings. Autumn storms make the sea spectacular and the cliff paths unsafe. Winter days are short but the low sun sits exactly where you want it all afternoon.
