Culture & discovery
Glénan Islands

This white flower grows nowhere else on Earth: discovered in 1803, it blooms in April in the nature reserve created to protect it.

Built in the 18th century against privateers, the fort at the heart of the Chambre now hosts the sailing school — and the archipelago's finest lookout.

The white-and-red tower of 1838 watches over the archipelago's easternmost island, a landmark for sailors and sailing trainees alike.
