Forget the English white cliffs of Dover, Etretat on the French side, out shines Dover

The town of Etretat ( just 55 minutes drive north of Honfleur) is famous for its three natural arches and white chalk cliffs that tower high over the Atlantic Ocean. Claude Monet and other impressionists famously painted the arches and cliffs in the 19th century.
Rather than eat in this very touristy town, do up a picnic lunch and eat in the countryside nearby.
