Our opinion on the St Michel Cove

Adresse of the St Michel Cove : Chapelle St Michel 06400 Ile de St Honorat

In the center of the island, near the port (not to be confused with th unloading stage which is farther west), you'll find a small cove facing the ruins of the Saint-Michel chapel. Narrow but more comfortable than certain coves (there is a sort of gravel), it is relatively isolated and little known. Nearby there are restrooms.

To arrive at this cove , take the direction toward the east point along the high road (you will have a view of the Sainte-Marguerite Island. Between the restrooms and the port (facing the chapel ruins), there is access on the left toward the sea. The cove is situated at the bottom.

Here is a new little cove facing the ruins of the Saint-Michel chapel. It is narrow but there is gravel to set a towel down (rather rare on this island.)
