The Porte d'Aval and the Needle of Étretat under setting sun

A coastal landscape featuring towering white cliffs at sunset, with a prominent rock formation jutting into the sea.

As the sun sets over the chalk cliffs of Étretat to the east, they take on a beautiful orange hue.

The low-angled light highlights the alternating layers of dark flint and yellowish marl that form these cliffs.
