Deauville

Deauville is a paradise for trend-watchers and lovers of the finer things in life, beaches, casinos, horse racing, and couture shopping. Its glamorous old world villas, manors, and hotels host many cultural events and festivals throughout the year, most notably a star-studded film festival in September that gives Cannes a run for its money. Deauville’s fashionable avenues and plazas, Ruedes Villas and Place Morny among them, are veritable Meccas for boutique shopping. In the centre are the town’s legendary racetracks, used for equestrian races throughout the year.
