Après une présentation de la baie d'Authie, je vous parlerai en détail de la biologie des 2 espèces de phoques. Nous irons ensuite les observer grâce à la longue-vue et poursuivrons le dialogue face aux mammifères marins. Il ne s'agit pas d'une randonnée, les phoques sont proches du lieu de rendez-vous.

I invite you to a flight on board a gyrocopter. It looks like a helicopter with a glass cabin offering a panoramic view. The rotor is activated by the front wind and the gyrocopter is propulsed by a rear propeller. Its cruise speed is between 50km/h and 180km/h; It takes off like an aircraft and lands on very short distances. Turbulences are less felt than in an aircraft. It is equipped with 4 points safety belts, and noise reduction headsets. Pilot and passenger are seated in tandem mode. Weather permitting, I invite you to a panoramic flight over the D-Day Landing Beaches taking off from the airfield of Courseulles sur Mer. The 45mn flight will go west to overfly the coast, Arromanches and the remains of the artificial harbour, the battery guns at Longues, Port en Bessin, and will go back around the American military cemetery of Saint-Laurent. The return flight will overfly Bayeux, and the castles of Creully and Fontaine-Henri among others. If you book 2 consecutive experiences, we will be able to fly farther and overfly the Pointe du Hoc site, and turn back over Sainte-Mère Eglise. Other things to note Minimum 10 years old. Minors need to bring a parental authorisation. Max Size : 6'4" , Max weight : 198lbs Only one passenger (2 seater) Flights available only in July

Attention ! je tiens a souligner que cette expérience a pour but de vous faire découvrir un endroit de la baie de Somme. En aucun cas vous n 'allez découvrir toute la baie de Somme...La sortie sera axée sur la découverte des phoques je précise qu'on n'est jamais certain de les voir, les oiseaux, plantes et coquillages...Ce n' est pas une grande randonnée sportive. La sortie nature sera en groupe , si votre date préférée ne figure pas dans le calendrier vous pouvez me contacter je pourrais en ajouter... même si le créneau est complet ! je suis un guide nature qualifié indépendant reconnu. Si vous avez envie de découvrir la nature avec un guide authentique de la région avec un zest d' humour vous êtes au bon endroit. Si l'humour vous déplais ou si vous espérez être seul ne vous inscrivez pas...la balade sera familiale et conviviale, tous les amoureux de nature sont les bien venus, les enfants petits et grands... Autres remarques Une sortie en privé est possible, a voir les modalités. Prévoyez une tenue adaptée pour la période d'hiver, les bottes sans oublier un coupe vent chaud, casquette ou bonnet. ( je peux dépanner pour les bottes) Il faut être présent 15 minutes avant l' heure du rendez-vous afin de pouvoir vous équiper et nous rencontrer pour partir du bon pied.

au départ du domaine de l'Atlas, je vous propose des balades à cheval, randonnées à cheval pour découvrir les routes Normandes dans les terres et/ou jusqu'à la mer.

Ils vous emmèneront volontiers galoper sur la plage si vous êtes cavaliers confirmés et réguliers avec un niveau galop 5 exigé, en fonction des marées, la plage n'est praticable pour les chevaux qu'après 19h accessible au coucher du soleil ou explorer les chemins de la campagne Normande, pour ensuite rentrer jusqu'au domaine. Vous pourrez ainsi passer un moment inoubliable, exceptionnel et décontractant, qui vous apportera une nouvelle vision du pays d'Auge et de sa Côte Fleurie en privilégiant un mode de transport respectueux de la nature, vous permettant de prendre le temps d'apprécier cette expérience et de tisser des liens avec les chevaux. En une phrase, je vous attends pour partager un moment de découverte et d'évasion qui vous procurera des souvenirs inoubliables.

As an artist & meditator I designed this experience to be a creative antidote to stress & a take home tool to help us embrace uncertainty. I guide my guests towards the beauty of surrendering to life's present moment & into the psychological wellbeing of the creative flow state via the ancient mediative art of Japanese ink marbling. Not only do my guests leave the workshop relaxed & with paper and card prints of their creative work to take with them, but with a new creative skill set they can then replicate at home. We start with a relaxing cup of herbal tea in my lounge & a brief history of marbling. After which I guide my guests through an easy to follow guided meditation to relax my guests, enhance our feeling of wellbeing & prepare us to enter the flow state of creativity fully relaxed & free from the everyday stress of the world outside. Following on is a practical demonstration of the techniques involved in Japanese marbling. Guests are then invited to get creative themselves in the relaxed supportive environment of my home to create individual works of marbling art with all materials supplied. Message me your requirements I may be able to accommodate diff start time group bookings. Suitable for children from age 12 (unless you book a private family group booking, again message me your requirements).

We will fly to the bay of Somme and discover the fabulous landscape it will offer us, starting with the Marquenterre park, then a descent to the village of Crotoy to then cross this bay and join Saint Valérie, its Cape Hornu and the Houdel. We will continue our way along the coast to appreciate magnificent cliffs. It is of course recommended to take your camera or camera in order to be able to burn the visuals of this experience forever.

Other things to note I am a private pilot, I suggest that you share the costs of the flight with me, I do not carry out a commercial service and do not make any profit. In accordance with EASA regulations (cost-shared flight).
