Vierville's seafront layout was different before World War 2. The chalet is marked AG. The road from the village to the beach turned closer inland and there were some buildings where the present memorial gun emplacement and car park are. Le Gallois had a rooming house (AU) there and a row of changing huts (AT). The casino was a restaurant directly on the beach.
AF denotes the tennis courts owned by the Petel family and probably is quite close to where the basin for the port was. It provides a handy landmark in photos taken during wartime.
In 1936 a 600 metre sea wall (la digue) was built at the Vierville end of the sea front, the digue to St. Laurent was only built after the war. The sea level has risen over the years.....as much as 5 metres at the boundary between Vierville and St. Laurent and this accounts for the curve in the road.
(This map from web site Viervillefree.fr is puzzling as AG seems far closer to the sea than AH and AI, which does not appear to be supported by photos.)
