Honfleur , on the threshold of the " Pays D'Auge " and the " Côte Fleurie " , is an ideal and privileged place to stay in throughout the year .
You' ll discover its picturesque flagged lanes and its old houses in the heart of a preserved area .
Honfleur is also a fishing port -- you can buy fresh fish at the fish market -- , as well as a yachting port : the "vieux bassin" -- old basin -- ,where you'll find old riggings, makes the pride of its inhabitants .
Honfleur is also a town dedicated to Art and history with several museums , a movie house and a media library .
If you like cuisine, especially French one, you' ll indulge yourself in one of the many restaurants of the town .
If you like to go window shopping , you' ll wander with delight in the old flagged streets and find lovely shops, antique shops and several art galleries .
The visitors bureau organises numerous activities ( http://www.ot-honfleur.fr/) . You' ll also be able to enjoy boat trips as well as walks on the beach, in the forest and in the countryside -- there are numerous hiking trails -- .
There would be many other things to say about Honfleur but I' ll let visitors discover and enjoy the various places left by themselves .
