Seaweed on the breeze by the Sainte-Catherine quayside, bright estuary light raking across the piers, then the long sweep of the Normandy Bridge taking you out toward the Alabaster Coast. Pastures give way to chalk cliffs and shingle that crunches underfoot, with Monet’s famed needle at Étretat in sight on a clear day. The drive from Honfleur to Étretat is roughly 55 km via the D940, skirting quiet valleys like Yport and Vattetot-sur-Mer and, in late spring, blue fields of flax.
Your driver collects you at your Honfleur hotel, keeps the Mercedes on standby all day, and handles timing, parking, and local traffic while you explore and taste—perhaps a plate of whelks in Fécamp. Around Étretat, he adjusts to the tide for the Porte d’Aval, drops you near the Clos Lupin, and, if you wish, adds a loop to Cap Fagnet or the Criquetot-l’Esneval market. With an Amani Limousines private chauffeur in Normandy, viewpoints line up smoothly even when the car parks are packed.

Your chauffeur’s tip
To beat the cliff crowds, plan to reach Étretat before 10 a.m. outside peak summer, or two hours before low tide if you want safe access to the beach under the Porte d’Aval.
