What to see
The Utah Beach Museum stands on the spot where the landings took place and tells the story of the beach from preparation to the end of the day, including a restored B-26 bomber. Monuments line the dunes outside, and the beach itself is wide and quiet.
Inland, Sainte-Mère-Église was the first town liberated by American paratroopers in the night before the landings.
Visiting
Utah Beach is about 50 minutes west of Bayeux by car and is usually combined with Sainte-Mère-Église and Omaha Beach on an American-sector tour.
