Let's visit Ushant...

Discover Ushant, this unusual island, a « frightening island » for some, but the most endearing of all, 20 km off the coast of Finistère, a veritable compendium of all the beauties of Brittany. It’s difficult to visit the island of Ushant from top to bottom for most of those who come here — often just for the day, between two boats. So here’s a summary of a visit that’s not meant to be exhaustive, but which offers a vision of the island of Ushant in its various seasons and states. To take away as a souvenir, whether you come by boat or by plane, or to give as a gift and make you want to go there... Eric Chaplain, born in Bordeaux in 1955, a regionalist publisher for nearly 40 years, was inoculated with the virus of the islands, particularly the Breton ones, when he took part in the Ushant island book fair. He initiated a collection of fine books on the islands of the Atlantic coast (Ushant, Molene, Groix, Belle-Isle, Noirmoutier). Here he offers a kind of « travel digest ».
