Beach near Rouen, France

Rouen Travel Guide

France

Rouen is a city of 112,787 people in northern France and the regional capital of Normandy. It sits inland on the River Seine, rather than on the coast, making it a useful base for exploring this part of the country.

Travellers arriving by air can use Boos Airport (URO), which serves Rouen. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of the city, so coastal trips require travelling farther afield.
