Staying in

A peaceful, history-laden fishing village: the Saint-Géran sank offshore in 1744, the wreck that inspired 'Paul et Virginie'. A memorial faces the lagoon with Amber Island on the horizon.

Tip: Ideal stop on the coastal road between Grand Gaube and the east; kayak departures for Amber Island.
