Welcome to Port-en-Bessin
Situated between the sea and the countryside, Port-en-Bessin-Huppain is a picturesque and authentic town, in the heart of the Normandy landing beaches and 9 km from Bayeux.
Nestling in a green setting, Port-en-Bessin-Huppain is a port with a prestigious historical past. Successively a military stronghold, a maritime town, an oil port, a commercial port and now a dynamic "small-scale" fishing port, Port-en-Bessin-Huppain has left its mark on history over the centuries.
Today, Port-en-Bessin-Huppain lives to the rhythm of the trawlers coming and going. Its quays come to life with the ebb and flow of the tides and as the fishermen return to unload their catch at the fish auction.
