Description
From Granville across to the Iles Chausey. The Iles Chausey are basically a "bunch of rocks" off the French coast. Apparently there are 365 islands at low tide. With a the ten metre tidal range when we were there, there are a whole lot less at high tide. Most of the photos are at low tide - showing The Sound that runs to the east of the main island. The approach requires some reasonably careful pilotage and then lying to the fore/aft moorings available in the Sound. The earlier photos show some very tall navigation marks at low water - look in the later photos which are closer to high water and they only just appear above the water!
