The beach at Saint-Georges-de-la-Rivière is a small seaside resort that emerged at the beginning of the 20th century on the Côte des Isles.
Coast and Trails
The Dunes de la côte des Isles lie between the havens of Portbail and Carteret. They comprise a dune-haven complex that is exceptional in terms of both landscape and biology. The GR 223 passes through the dunes of Saint-Georges-de-la-Rivière.
Animals are allowed on the beach at Saint-Georges-de-la-Rivière. In July and August, riding on the beach’s intertidal zone is permitted before 10 a.m. and after 7 p.m. There is also a car park at the beach for visitors to the Dunes de la côte des Isles.
Culture and History
The Église Saint-Georges dates from the 14th and 15th centuries. It contains the tomb slab of the Sohier family. This has been registered as a protected object since 9 December 1975.
The bell tower of the Église Saint-Georges was built for maritime surveillance and defence and was equipped accordingly. The Caquetoire is attached to one side of the nave rather than being positioned in front of the main entrance. The church features frescoes with floral designs and a depiction of the Resurrection of Christ.
The Grotte Notre-Dame was inaugurated on 17 September 1945. An annual gathering was held there around 15 August for the Fête de Marie.
The Manoir de la rue Marquand dates from the 16th to the 17th century. The Manoir de Caillemont was built at the end of the 17th century or in the early years of the 18th century. The Ferme-manoir de Dodeville was built at the end of the 16th century.
