FR.B. Introduction FR.B.1 Presentation of the eel fisheries in France The French eel fisheries occur mainly in inland waters (rivers, estuaries, ponds and lagoons) and also in coastal waters (see Figure FR. 1 and Table FR.a). The glass eel fisheries are more important in the Bay of Biscay region but they are also found in the Manche region. The yellow eel fisheries occur in the same areas and also concern the upper parts of the rivers of the Atlantic coast, the Rhine and tributaries. The Mediter‐ ranean lagoons produce the most part of yellow eels and bootlace eels are targeted for exportation towards Italy. Silver eel fisheries are limited to some rivers, mostly in the Loire basin. 336 EIFAC/ICES WGEEL Report 2008 CHANNEL Bay of Biscay Figure FR. 1 Inland waters in France (eel fisheries in red; tidal limits in green).

  • Deauville Press Release
    DEAUVILLE PRESS RELEASE Contacts : Delphine Barré-Lerouxel & Sandrine Chardon +33 (0)2 31 14 69 52/42 – [email protected] - [email protected] Experiencing Deauville is walking along the Planches with the sea for a garden, discovering its architecture which blends the extravagance of the Second Empire, the golden age of Anglo-Norman design and the striking buildings of the 1890s, an architecture which is explained, protected and valued, in a resort where everything is accessible on foot or by bicycle. It is playing golf in the heart of Normandy, setting sail on the Estuary which inspired Dufy, witnessing the unforgettable spectacle of a horse race. It is attending a concert at the Casino’s proscenium theatre, discovering the new talents of American film, seeing the works of artists inspired by the light and atmosphere of the town. It is wandering round the market, to discover the cellar of a Calvados producer, tasting the excellent local specialities, or simply doing nothing but daydreaming on the beach. Experiencing Deauville is starting out with no fixed ideas. Touching a territory that is far removed from the clichés. An identity and creativity continually renewed and accessible. From the marshes to the kingdom of elegance From the little village on the hillside to the famous seaside resort, Deauville has seen a meteoric rise. No ordinary host, the town has, over the years, succeeded in adapting to an evolving tourism market, by developing its welcome and leisure infrastructure. Its ongoing commitment to increasing its attractiveness, the respect for its environment, the promotion and preservation of its heritage and its accessibility by all means of transport make it a place of choice on the tourism map.

  • ARQANA Launches First French Trade Fair Entirely Dedicated to the Thoroughbred Industry
    Press release Tuesday 31 May 2016 ARQANA launches first French trade fair entirely dedicated to the thoroughbred industry Inaugural edition of Galop Expo to take place in Deauville during October Yearling Sale Until recently, France was lacking the benefit of a professional trade fair fully dedicated to the thoroughbred industry, whereas the trotting world has enjoyed the ever growing success of Vincennes’ Expo Etalons, where in excess of 120 exhibitors and 8,000 visitors congregated last January for the 20th renewal. Thoroughbred breeders, trainers, owners, innovative businesses, vets, labs, feed merchants, etc. will now be able to meet at Galop Expo, whose first edition will take place in Deauville, October 18-20, 2016. This new initiative by ARQANA, which has received the backing of France Galop, the Deauville town council and the Normandy regional council, aims to support the growth and innovation capacity of the French and European thoroughbred industry. The chosen dates coincide with the October Yearling Sale and the Autumn race meeting at Deauville-La Touques racecourse, resulting in a not-to-be-missed event for all French and European professionals as well as young people who would be considering a career in racing. A showcase for the thoroughbred industry The 70 stands will be lodged in a large, comfortable marquee erected on the racecourse car park, thus establishing a link between the sales grounds and the races. This premium location will generate optimum visits and networking opportunities throughout the day. Galop Expo will open its doors at 10:00am each day until the early evening, with a special night on Wednesday until 10:00pm.

  • Rambles in Normandy
    Rambles in Normandy By M. F. Mansfield Rambles In Normandy PART I. RAMBLES IN NORMANDY CHAPTER I. INTRODUCTORY “ONE doubles his span of life,” says George Moore, “by knowing well a country not his own.” is a good friend, indeed, to whom one may turn in time of strife, and none other than Normandy—unless it be Brittany—has proved itself a more safe and pleasant land for travellers. When one knows the country well he recognizes many things which it has in common with England. Its architecture, for one thing, bears a marked resemblance; for the Norman builders, who erected the magnificent ecclesiastical edifices in the Seine valley during the middle ages, were in no small way responsible for many similar works in England. It is possible to carry the likeness still further, but the author is not rash enough to do so. The above is doubtless sufficient to awaken any spirit of contention which might otherwise be latent. Some one has said that the genuine traveller must be a vagabond; and so he must, at least to the extent of taking things as he finds them. He may have other qualities which will endear him to the people with whom he comes in contact; he may be an artist, an antiquarian, or a mere singer of songs;—even if he be merely inquisitive, the typical Norman peasant makes no objection. One comes to know Normandy best through the real gateway of the Seine, though not many distinguish between Lower Normandy and Upper Normandy. Indeed, not every one knows where Normandy leaves off and Brittany begins, or realizes even the confines of the ancient royal domain of the kings of France.
