The archipelago of Chausey Islands includes 52 islands and 365 islets. It is a vast aera for seascape observation and a paradise for fishermen. Beyond Chausey Islands, the Channel Islands come into sight and unveil Jersey, Guernesey, Sark and Alderney. 

Chausey Islands

The amplitude of the tides (the highest in Europe) uncovers immense sand banks joining the islands together: "La Grande Ile" and "Anneret" are the only habitable islands, the others offer a vast area for  seascape observation and are a real paradise for fishermen.

The waters, braced by strong winds and streams, are inhabited by myriads of organisms, from plankton to dolphins. This fullness offers a marvellous field for ornithological observation since numerous species of sea birds can be
found (gannets, small penguins, cormorants).

Choosing your route

As you leave the "Port de Hérel",  several options are given to you:

• Follow the Western route, running parallel to the Mont Saint Michel and the Breton coast to sail to Bréhat (54 miles).
• Sail straight ahead and discover Chausey Islands (9 miles) and their numerous facets.
• Head North East and enjoy Jersey's (30 miles) and Guernsey's (54 miles)British charm.
