Service Description

Utah Beach at Strongpoint 10 - the monuments, the bunkers and the beach broadcast LIVE from Utah Beach. "My daughter gave me the virtual tours as a gift for Christmas. I must say it is one of the best gifts I have received. My Dad came on shore at Utah Beach and I had always wanted to know more and see the beaches at Normandy. Patrick has an excellent presentation of what took place that day." - TripAdvisor review A virtual walk in the footsteps of the 4th US Infantry Division and the 2nd French Armoured Division at Saint Martin de Varreville in the bunker-strewn dunes of Utah Beach. We will visit the monument to General Leclerc and then walk through the dunes and on to the beach. Here we will discover the remains of the Gooseberry harbour and the pontoon causeway. Next we will explore the artillery bunkers of German Strongpoint 10 and go inside the gun emplacements.
