Breton Getaway
The Glénan Islands
Welcome to paradise! The Breton Glénan Islands are just as beautiful as their Pacific counterparts. The water here is the clearest in Brittany.
The Glénan Islands, an enchanted archipelago! Take a timeless break and land on Saint Nicolas, the largest of the twelve islands in the archipelago. This is paradise. The water here is said to be the clearest in Brittany—what a pleasure to swim in it, even if it’s cold! Two companies, Vedettes de l’Odet and Vedettes Glenn, offer different options for visiting the archipelago.

Nautical activities
The sailing school and water sports center are also world-renowned, and if you’re lucky enough to visit the island in April, Lulu, the nature guide from Fouesnant, will take you to the reserve where the Glénan daffodils bloom—unique in the world and saved just in time in the 1980s.
