Islands - Finistèrehome > regions > Finistère > Islands off BrittanyThere are some interesting islands off the coast that are ideal for day trips. From Brest:Ile d’OuessantThe infamous island of Ushant, the Ile d’Ouessant, lies out to the
west of Brest and now forms part of the Armorique nature reserve. The
boat trip from Brest takes about an hour, and once there, you can get
around by bike or minibus. From Roscoff:Ile de BatzA 15 minute boat ride will take you to the charming Ile de Batz, with its exotic gardens and impressive lighthouse. From Audierne:Ile de SeinThis tiny island of bare trees and shrubs has only about 500 inhabitants mostly reliant on fishing. In 1940, 150 men left the island for London to join the Free French Forces under De Gaulle and led to the island being awarded the Croix de la Libération.
