Les espaces naturels de l'île Tatihou-CD50

Tatihou Island is the property of the Coastal Conservatory and its management is entrusted to the Department of the Channel. The site has been in tourism since 1992 and this year the island celebrates its thirty years of opening to the public. The island has many natural habitats on an area of 29 hectares. Consequently, it is possible to observe in this small territory a very large number of animal and plant species, both marine and terrestrial. Since 1997, the Tatihou-Saint-Vaast-La-Hougue site has joined the Natura 2000 network. Walk the island with a coastal guard (Saturday) and the island biologist (Sunday) who will introduce you to the foreshore, the intramural or the meadow and explain the need to protect this fragile heritage.

About the location

Île Tatihou
BP 3, 50550 Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue
  • Manche
  • Normandie
Far from the mainland and yet firmly anchored in the bustling port of Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue, Tatihou Island is a haven for all lovers of fresh air and maritime history. On this 28-hectare territory, the Conseil Départemental de la Manche and the Conservatoire du Littoral join forces to conserve and enhance the island’s wealth. From the Vauban fortifications to the Atlantic Wall, Tatihou has kept marks of the past. The lives of the men who stayed here can be read through landscapes and buildings. By the sea or in the middle of oyster beds at low tide, the amphibious boat takes you to the island from April to November. Tatihou is a concentrate of the maritime world. Its doors are open, enter by the one of your choice!
