I am assuming this coastal area of France is somewhere near Normandy/Brittany, and this is a famous oak tree in that area called the guillotin Oak.

Not sure what kind of oak, but this is the general look of it.

If you think to Normandy as Dane mentions you can add poplars, beech trees, ash trees just to name a few.
So the choice is yours!

For the Provence coast, you'd better use different types of pinetrees and bushes.
