My husband and I rented electric touring bikes to ride from Bayeux to Omaha Beach and beyond on beautiful seaside paths. Our bikes were well-maintained Bosch's, and helmets and single pannier bags were included. Inside the bags were locks and basic bike accesories (pump, tire sealant,etc). The bikes were promptly delivered at the agreed time, and the shop representatives were very cordial and helpful. We highly reccomend!

Fantastic service, an absolute must if visiting the area. The coastal routes are simply stunning and highly enjoyable especially on electric/ hybrid bikes! We had 3 children under 7, so the two youngest were in a trolley out the back and my 7 year old had his own bike. We ended up
Swapping his midweek so he could be attached to the back of one of the electric bikes to help with some of the colossal hills!

A different and beautiful way to experience Normandy. You get a great ride along the countryside that takes you right to the sights. I would recommend starting early so you can stop for breaks and pictures along the way and to make it to all desired locations. We took the train from Paris to Bayeux. The station is close enough to walk or taxi to the bike shop. Be prepared for biking a lot of miles-bring snacks and water! Loc Velo was so helpful and the bikes and equipment were great.

This is probably the most ideal way to experience the Normandie countryside, from Bayeux to Omaha Beach - (provided you are up to the task of biking). The person who helped me with the bike was very friendly, and gave very clear instructions and directions in English.
Their addon package was an absolute steal that included a preprogrammed route that could be uploaded to your phone, and a hefty power bank for your phone - both of which were lifesavers! The route was perfect - leading me through countryside roads, alongside farmlands and beach routes, past various monuments and relics of the D-Day invasion that I'm sure many others may have missed by taking more direct routes to the beach. Of course the route still takes you to the American cemetery and Omaha Beach itself (including the museum if you are interested).
The bike had plenty of storage for some camera gear and water, and the electronic assist was helpful for making sure I didn't tire out (and battery was no concern - and I used the Turbo mode to help on some uphill areas, especially towards the end).
I managed to see everything I wanted to and more in just a day, have lunch at the beach and still had plenty of time to get catch the train to and from Paris. I absolutely would recommend this to anyone looking to really soak in Normandie for what it is and take a journey that respects the history of what happened there. Thank you Loc Velo for providing a very memorable experience out of what was initially a worry filled, last minute solo day drip from Paris to Omaha Beach.
