Have you always dreamed of exploring all the Ponant islands and enjoying their hidden treasures? Here's a golden opportunity thanks to Ponant Islands Passportan initiative I discovered during my trip to the island of Groix during the All Saints' Day vacations.
This precious sesame, issued only on the islands concerned, gives you the opportunity to discover and honor these 15 pearls of Brittany and the Atlantic coast.
Available from tourist offices, information points and town halls on the Ponant islands, the island passport is valid for 5 years, enough time to plan your escapades in these unspoilt lands: Chausey archipelago, Ile de Brรฉhat, Ile de Batz, Ile d'Ouessant, Ile de Molรจne, Ile de Sein, Glรฉnan archipelago, Ile de Groix, Belle-รฎle-en-Mer, Ile de Houat, Ile de Hoรซdic, Ile aux Moines, Ile d'Arz, Ile d'Yeu, Ile d'Aix
Contents of this island passport
The passport contains one page per island with all the essential information: surface area, distance from the coast, population size, method of energy and water distribution... This will give you a general idea of each destination before you set foot on it.
After collecting your island passport on site, you can collect buffers on each island visited. These precious souvenirs can be obtained from tourist offices, information points or town halls. Prizes will be awarded to those who collect the stamps fastest.
