Respect aux commando marine
Pour qui va à Ouistreham, il convient de parcourir la plage de Riva Bella et de se souvenir des français des commando marine qui ont débarqué le 6 juin 44. Au delà du monument de "la Flamme", des photographies mêlant l'histoire et les hommages plus récents ponctuent cette promenade du souvenir.
