Île-aux-Moines

Île-aux-Moines straddles tidal channels in the Gulf of Morbihan in southern Brittany, a setting that has kept the island closely tied to ferries, sailing and changing currents. Often called the Pearl of the Gulf, it is the largest island in this enclosed sea, where wooded lanes, coves and small harbours shape a compact maritime community. Its story reaches back to prehistory: the Kergonan cromlech, a ring of standing stones, is among the island’s megalithic monuments. Beaches and coastal paths provide a quieter counterpoint to the busy ports of nearby Vannes.
