Geography
The river's source is in the forest of Eu, just south of the village of Aubermesnil-aux-Érables. Its course takes a northerly route past Foucarmont and Fallencourt. It then turns northwestward and passes through the communes of Grandcourt, Villy-sur-Yères, Sept-Meules, Cuverville-sur-Yères, Saint-Martin-le-Gaillard, Touffreville-sur-Eu and finally through Criel-sur-Mer to the sea.
Like most other rivers in the region, the Yères is classified as a first class river, offering anglers the chance to catch trout and lampreys, but not salmon.{{cite web|url=http://natura2000.environnement.gouv.fr/sites/FR2300137.html |title=The Yères on the Natura 2000 website|access-date=October 15, 2008 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080927141824/http://natura2000.environnement.gouv.fr/sites/FR2300137.html |archive-date=September 27, 2008 }}
