FROM WILD TO PRECIOUS ISLANDS

Island of Molène

Molène is the main island of an archipelago of the same name, comprising some twenty islets. The island is around 15 kilometers from the coast. Separated from the Molène archipelago by the Fromveur Passage, Ouessant is the largest and most westerly of the Finistère islands. The Iroise Sea, so distinctive with its lighthouses, islets, channels, rocks and shallows, is one of the brightest in the world.

TESTIMONIAL

The Molène archipelago seen from the mainland

The panorama from Corsen Point is incredible. The islands are clearly visible on the horizon, among the lighthouses and beacons, but also, when we're lucky, the dolphins!
