The Vanlée is a short 16 km river in Normandy which, before flowing into the English Channel, irrigates a 10-hectare marsh, the Havre de la Vanlée, classified as a natural heritage site since 1988. Covered with salt meadows, grasslands and salt marshes, it is crossed by a submersible road that is covered during high tides. Some 150 species of birds have been recorded there. There are also sheep and rabbits!
