------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dieppe is a busy port city of about 35,000 in Normandy, nestled among dramatic limestone cliffs on the English Channel (La Manche). It has one of the busiest port cities in Normandy, and a salty, authentic old harbor where fishermen unload their loads of fresh fish and famous scallops. Located a quick ferry ride from Newhaven in the UK and the closest beach town to Paris, today Dieppe is both a travel destination and an authentic fishing town.
