A private e-bike ride along the Caen Canal from Ouistreham to the original Pegasus Bridge site, tracing the first Allied liberation of France, minutes from where cruise ships dock.
What to expect
You ride the flat towpath beside the Caen Canal, passing Riva-Bella's belle-époque villas before reaching the original Pegasus Bridge, now a museum piece beside its modern replacement. Your guide explains the glider landings that secured the bridge hours before the beach assaults. It's unhurried, scenic, and close enough to port to fit easily around a sailing time.
Good to know
Ideal for passengers wanting to stay close to Ouistreham; round trip is roughly 12km each way, manageable in 2.5-3 hours with stops. Pegasus Bridge museum entry (EUR 8) pairs well if time allows.
