Only a few minutes by boat from Saint-Pierre, this isolated island seems frozen in time, offering every visitor an authentic and unforgettable experience. A unique opportunity to discover an unspoiled place steeped in history and emotion.
As soon as you set foot on the island, you'll feel an instant change of scenery. The absolute calm and splendid natural surroundings will offer you a rare moment of serenity, far from the hustle and bustle. It's the perfect place to recharge your batteries and reconnect with what's essential, while discovering a natural setting of breathtaking beauty.
Explore the traditional houses, the old school and the church, silent witnesses to the lives of the fishing families who forged the island's identity. Each building tells a story, each corner of the island reveals a new facet of its rich past. Follow in the footsteps of those who once lived by the rhythm of the sea.
The visit also includes entry to the Archipelitude Museum, located in the island's former school. This museum reveals the secrets of the daily life of the island's inhabitants in days gone by, offering a complete immersion of the archipelago in a bygone era that is still very much alive in people's memories.
