Dives-sur-Mer is a commune in the Calvados department in the Normandy region in northwestern France.

It was from harbour of Dives-sur-Mer that William the Conqueror set out on the Norman Conquest of England in 1066. A monumental plaque in the church lists the companions of the Conqueror.

The medieval wooden market hall and the 13th-14th century church are the main attractions of the town.
