From the capital, it takes just a few minutes’ flight to leave the present behind and reach one of the most historically-charged places of the 20th century. The D-Day beaches tell the story of courage, strategy and memory.
At dawn on June 6, 1944, more than 150,000 Allied soldiers landed on the Normandy coast as part of Operation Overlord. The day marked the beginning of the liberation of occupied Europe. Five beaches became names steeped in memory: Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno and Sword. Each bears witness to a precise military strategy, an extraordinary logistical effort, and thousands of lives lost. From the air, these beaches reveal their expanse, the remains of bunkers, artificial harbours and the natural lines that structured the invasion. The overflight allows us to embrace in a single glance the scale and complexity of this decisive twentieth-century operation.
A helicopter flight over the D-Day beaches offers an incomparable experience: you avoid a 9-10 hour round-trip drive from Paris, while enjoying a spectacular aerial view of the key D-Day sites. This unique perspective gives you a better understanding of the scale of Operation Overlord, the Allied strategic positions and the geography of the Normandy coastline. It’s also a considerable time-saver for those wishing to experience an intense, rich and well-organized day.
Yes, our flights are 100% private and customizable. You can choose to spend more time at certain sites, or target specific family or military locations.
Yes, the private helicopter flight to Normandy is entirely adapted to international clientele. Our pilots and guides speak English, and the vintage Michelin map given to passengers is available in both French and English.
