Juno beach normandy

Our trip to the beaches of Normandy and the Canadian War Cemetery in France.

Canada House, located on Juno Beach in Bernières-sur-Mer, Normandy, is an important historic site you should visit. It was the first house to be liberated on D-Day, June 6, 1944 by the Canadian army. Today, the French owners open their house so we can learn more about the soldiers and their heroic efforts during D-Day and the Normandy Invasion.

Juno Beach is a beautiful beach section in Normandy between Courseulles-sur-Mer and La Rivière Ver-sur-Mer, famous for invasion in WW2.

Let me show you how to spend 3 days in Normandy—which museums to visit, where to base yourself, how to get around, and much more.

While Normandy is an expansive region in northern France, one place everyone should visit are the D-Day beaches to learn more about the Normandy invasions by the allies during World War II. The museums are outstanding and so are the memorials and villages in the area.

Amid emotional scenes, several hundred former soldiers, many proudly wearing their old uniforms emblazoned with medals, gathered to lay wreaths and remember fallen comrades.

Juno Beach, Normandy, France. How cool is that? So emotional, this was Canada's front on D-Day. I'm sure there are a ton of other WWII sites and museums in Normandy, but this ones especially significant to me. Side note, you can actually surf on Juno Beach.
