​FRANCE - Brittany -

Pink Granite Coast -

Sept-Iles  (Seven Islands)

These seven elusive, rarely inhabited islands lie about as many kilometres north of the exceptionally popular Côte de Granit Rose, but few humans set foot on them and it's now a natural reserve (Réserve Naturelle des Sept Iles). Monks tried to establish a foothold, but gave up. The main occupants are the seabirds that congregate here to nest in vast numbers. The puffins are to be found at home on the archipelago for a shorter season, from spring to July normally. Guillemots, fulmars, kittiwakes and manx shearwaters count among other of the many species that thrive here. There’s also a small colony of grey seals, although they’re hugely outnumbered by the birds
