The La Hague area has precambrian granite and gneiss cliffs, several coves and small fields surrounded by hedges. France's oldest rocks are to be found on its coast in Jobourg.[1] Other rocky outcroppings on the coast include Cadomian granite in Auderville[2] and Variscan granite in Flamanville.[3]

The dialect of the Norman language spoken by a minority in the region is called Haguais. The Norman poet Côtis-Capel was a native of the region and used the landscape as inspiration for his poetry. The painter Jean-François Millet was also a native of the region.

The La Hague site, the largest light water reactor nuclear waste reprocessing plant on earth (over half of the world's capacity), is located in the region.

[es] Cabo de la Hague

El cabo de la Hague (en francés: Cap de la Hague) es el cabo que constituye el extremo de la península de Cotentin, en Baja Normandía, noroeste de Francia. Se encuentra frente a las islas del Canal. La Hague es un lugar pintoresco de acantilados de granito precámbrico, con cuevas y pequeños campos. Ofrece bellos paisajes naturales y conserva, en lo esencial, sus pueblos y su hábitat tradicional. Allí se encuentra un centro de reprocesado de desechos nucleares, fuente principal de recursos económicos y al tiempo, de controversias. Es la planta más grande de este tipo, y supone alrededor de la mitad de la capacidad mundial.
