Fecamp Vacation Guide

Fecamp; just over halfway from Dieppe to Le Havre, this city is a serious fishing port with an attractive seafront promenade and a waste number of fishing boats in the harbour. The city as such is not as charming as the the other small cities that I visited that day.

One compelling reason to pay a brief visit is to see the Benedictine Distillery on rue Alexandre-le-Grand, in the narrow strip of streets running parallel to the port towards the town centre. Tours lasting an hour and a half start with a visit to a small museum, set firmly in the Middle Ages with props of manuscripts, locks, testaments, lamps and religious paintings beneath a nightmarish mock-Gothic roof. The first whiff of Benedictine – a sweet herby liqueur often combined with brandy – comes in the grim rust-and-grey-coloured Salle des Abbés, and at this point the script abruptly changes – from mysterious monks to PR for an exclusive product

We're heading back to France, this time to Normandy! Coming on this trip (aside from myself) are my mom, my aunt, my mom's best friend, 2 of her choirmates, 2 of my friends, and possibly 2 of my cousins. We will be staying in Paris, Mandeville-en-Bessin in Calvados, and St Leonard in Seine-Maritime.
