Rocky islet off Perros-Guirec on the Côte de Granit Rose in northern Brittany, anchorage on its south side.

Guide

Approach and anchoring

Approach from the south via the Perros-Guirec channel, leaving the pink granite reefs of Les Sept-Îles archipelago to the west. Rocky bottom with poor holding; drop on the sand patches where visible, in around 12 m. A rock uncovers at low water on the south side of the anchorage, so identify it before swinging. Shelter from N, NE, E and SE winds only, fully exposed to W and SW. VHF 9 for Perros-Guirec harbour.

Practical

No facilities on the islet itself. Port Le Goff lies 1.9 NM east, Perros-Guirec marina 2 NM SW with water, diesel and all services.

Ashore

Dinghies can land on the islet, with a way up through the brambles and ferns, with wild oysters to gather off the rocks. Les Sept-Îles nature reserve 2 NM north is the largest seabird sanctuary in France, with gannets, puffins and grey seals. Coastal path GR 34 runs along the mainland shore between Ploumanac'h and Perros-Guirec, 2 NM SW.
