Utah Beach
Utah Beach
Utah beach stretch for appromately 30 km south from st-vaast from 6:30 am onwards on D-day 23000 men and 1700 vehicles landed here. A minor coast road, the D241 traces the edge of the dunes and enables visitors to follow the course of the fighting though in truth there`s precious little to see these days ships that were deleberately sunk to create artifitial break waters are still visiable at low tide while markers along the seafront commemorate individual fallen heroes
