The memorial is located directly on the beach of Saint-Laurent-sur-Mer and is a central place of remembrance for the victims and heroes of the Second World War.

Hiking
Omaha Beach was one of the 5 landing zones of D-Day and the most heavily fought over... approximately 3000+ American soldiers lost their lives here.
First visited the museum and then walked to the beach.
Not much to see on the beach, beautiful blue water and now a peaceful view. Hard to imagine what it must have been like on June 6, 1944
